Subject: Using Mac fonts in TeX

I am preparing an i-Installer i-package that will detect Mac fonts on 
your system and convert them for use with TeX. I have some trouble 
getting this to work. I have a map file:

This map file has been added to the And I have created a file 
gillsans.sty:

\def\fileversion{1}
\def\filedate{2002/12/30}
\ProvidesPackage{gillsans}[\filedate\space\fileversion
  \space PSNFSS LaTeX2e package loading Gill Sans]
\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{mgs}
\endinput

But when I try \usepackage{gillsans} and \textsf{Some text} I get

LaTeX Font Warning: Font shape `OT1/mgs/m/n' undefined
(Font)              using `OT1/cmr/m/n' instead on input line 20.

which clearly is what I do not want. I am able to produce a testfont 
page for GillSans by choosing font mgsr16t, so it seems that my 
gillsans.sty is in error. Can someone in the know about TeX and fonts 
clear this up for me?

Thanks,

G
