A somewhat related digression for the original topic ... Editing a binary info.plist can be (easily IMO) done with the Property List Editor app included as part of the XCode Integrated Development Environment (IDE). The entire IDE is a "free with registration" albeit rather large download from the Apple site. I think but do not know that it is included on the Leopard and Tiger retail DVDs. Not sure whether it is on the install media included with a Mac. I never looked. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xcode Perhaps there are also other (binary) property list editor apps out there. I never bothered to look since the Apple provides has always been more than sufficient for my needs.
