Good idea, I will look into this one...
I can already create an XML version of a plist with dictionaries and
arrays. But the iPhone plist is binary. So I have to copy the text I
created from Revolution and then in the iPhone SDK view/convert the
plist as XML -- then paste the text from REV -- then view as binary
again and it is then binary plist. This works well for me in building
them from the desktop but is not programatic for on-rev version.
I have a series of apps that I am building that will read the plist
downloaded from on-rev that have info entered by web users.
-----------
My alternative is to download text from on-rev and then have the
iphone app build the plist. But programatically that is a bit harder.
Rev is much easier. Much much much easier.

You could send the plist file to a Rev cgi running on OSX and it
would return the result, or perhaps an iPhone app (as it might have
plutil in its operating system)

It turns out that Apple recommends using a pList over json or xml
for
transferring data via NSUrl.
There would be a lot of things I could do if I knew how to create
them.
(on the desktop I can do them and upload manually but then I would
still
have to populate them online)
Tom, I have a stack that I use for editing plist files:

Perhaps you could start with an existing plist and use the scripts in
here to modify them.
When you say revOnline, do you mean On-Rev? revOnline doesn't allow
anything other than stack hosting does it?
As regards On-Rev, the servers are Linux machines, so the plutil
command will not be available, as it is OS X only.
