I'm betting that your ASCII plist file has mixed line-end characters in it. That's perfectly legal inside of an XML file so long as all of the 0D line ends are inside of an XML item that's treated as binary mode by software that expects it. BBEdit worksheets are stored just that way. The data that appears in a BBEdit window as text is separated by 0Ds within a large XLM data item and the XML plist file that contains it is delimited by 0As. BBEdit will absolutely refuse to open its own worksheets as plain old text files. -- -> Stocks are getting pelloreid <- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BBEdit Talk" group.
