Kbase Article of the Week: Mac OS X 10.4: Reading .plist Preference Files →

April 30, 2019 ⌘ Permalink Stephen Hackett

Apple Support:

Mac OS X applications typically store preference settings in plist files, such as “com.apple.Mail.plist”. In Mac OS X 10.3.9 and earlier, plist files were typically in XML format. In Mac OS X 10.4 and later, plist files are often in binary format for faster application performance.
