I have an application that runs on OS X. I need to be able to tell

I know that Spotlight stores a file called _exclusions.plist in
the /.Spotlight-V100/ directory. Is there a good class that allows
reading and writing of Apple .plist files? I can put the excluded
folder's information in this file, but you need root permissions to
even read the file in the first place.
Hi Chris,
I just went through this with Apple for a non-RB project. Spotlight
is volume-oriented at this point. May be a good idea to submit a
feature request to Apple.
