If you make a Mach-O app, then it's a package already.  If you make a
PEF app, then you have to do it yourself.  One easy way to do that is
to first make a Mach-O app, then reach into it and replace the
executable with your PEF version.  Another way is to use Thomas
Reed's AppBundler (that's from memory, hopefully I got it right!).

Finally, of course, you could just do it manually based on Apple's
docs -- it's just a little folder hierarchy with a certain structure.

Best,
