It is just xml. Open the plist file (or a copy) in Xcode and see how it is structured. Then take a look at the source code for TextEdit. It might be somewhat revealing to look up LSSharedFileList.h
From https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/Carbon/RN-LaunchServices/_index.html The Shared File List API is new to Launch Services in Mac OS X Leopard. This API provides access to several kinds of system-global and per-user persistent lists of file system objects, such as recent documents and applications, favorites, and login items. For details, see the new interface file LSSharedFileList.h. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
