You can do it with .pkg installers before they start too
Authored by: ontangent on Jul 17, '02 04:39:04PM

You can look at what files a .pkg installer like the apple software updates (if you download them before installing) are going to install before they start too.

I think the option only becomes avaliable after you have oked the License though but then you can go to File:Show Files and it will give you a text listing of everthing it is going to install and in what folders on your drive (only saw this last week too, so I do not know how long it has been there).
