pltool

tool.pngIn past months I've been doing a lot of work that required using shell scripts to automate build procedures and the like. It seemed that I frequently needed to be able to edit Mac OS XML property list files from these scripts, which isn't exactly easy to do in a safe, predictable way from a bash script. So, here is my solution: pltool, an OS X command line utility that lets you crack open property list files and create/modify/delete various kinds of values within these lists.

If you'd find this useful, please help yourself.

Update: Version 2 is now posted, fixing a bug with date handling, and adding some support for time zones.
