If you are wanting to use Sarah's scripting (thanks for posting that, Sarah) to help with an updater then it might be useful to have a generalized method for locating PlistBuddy. Ken Ray supplied part of this one. (Paste into the message box:)

Very helpful utility, Sarah -- thank you very much! Clicking your url crashed Firefox, so I recommend instead using the Message Box and typing
go url "http://troz.troz.on-rev.com/stacks/PlistEditor.rev";

If I make an OS X standalone I can check the version number in the Finder
using 'Get Info'.

I use a utility I wrote that reads the info.plist file and allows you
to change the version number stored there.
When you save the new version data, the app is "touched" which not
only makes it show the updated data from info.plist, but it changes
the app's modification date to the current date.
It isn't very neat, but it works well and if people are interested, I
would be happy to make it available.

Yes please.

You can download the stack from
<http://troz.troz.on-rev.com/stacks/PlistEditor.rev>
I added some basic help, so read it to see how it works.

Cheers,
Sarah

P.S. This is just a temporary address while I work out my new web
site, so if you try the download in a couple of weeks and it fails,
try going to www.troz.net and searching there instead.
