Hi there. In Mac::PropertyList 1.35, there is a documentation bug. At line 97 we see the following list: There are several types of objects: Mac::PropertyList::string Mac::PropertyList::data Mac::PropertyList::real Mac::PropertyList::integer Mac::PropertyList::date Mac::PropertyList::array Mac::PropertyList::dict It fails to mention the "true" and "false" types, which are essential for dealing with boolean values. In addition, I humbly suggest adding an explanatory note about true/false, since it is not obvious if you haven't been working with raw plist files; the property list editor in XCode shows you a "BOOLEAN" type, which of course is only a "helpful" abstraction. cheers -- frosty
I'm making both changes in 1.36. Thanks,
