OK, this makes sense, but you're still doing a linear scan through the data you've loaded (and I'm assuming creating NSString objects from what you find because plain old C strings will be pretty useless to you otherwise). You might very well find that storing the plist representation winds up being faster or saving you from some code in the future. Particularly if you are doing lookups in the dictionary based on user input, because Unicode is tricky with what is considered "equal". --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
