I'm looking for a utility that will generate a list of all files,
visible *and* invisible, and their locations as installed by an
installer. Thanks.

You can usually use Pacifist to explore the installer; or, use the Unix
"find" command to list all files newer than the moment when you ran the
installer. m.

If you are using the Apple Installer, use "Show Files" in the File menu.
