    Software: PLIST 2 XML

    A few months ago I created a simple tool that added a GUI to the Plutil tool that comes with Mac’s. Plutil allows a user via Terminal to convert binary Plist files into XML files and vice versa. At the time I had been playing with Plist files so a quick convertor was very useful. [...]

    Yet another post on PLISTS.

    I am once again going to cover some more information over .plist files.   .PLIST files come in two formats, XML and Binary.
