Jim,

Thanks for that. This plus the pointer to plutil were both a big help.

The language is now back again and comments are almost working. The almost 
comes from the fact they are coloured red (strings) rather than as comments. I 
presume this comes from the way I have implemented the regex within the plist 
file.

        <key>Comment Pattern</key>
        <string>(?s)^C.*?\$</string>

For whatever reason this is being matched but is seen as a string.

Regards,

Steve
