The correspondence between the two forms is documented in the Java release
notes, especially for 10.1 and above:
<http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Java/java.html>

I know of no tool to do a conversion. That's a good idea for a little Java
utility, though. The plist format is pretty straightforward to produce,
even without an XML class-library. The MRJApp.properties file is just a
straight Properties file, with some properties that have "meaningful" names
for translation (see release-notes) and all the rest just copied across
into the Properties dictionary. Sounds like a useful way to spend a rainy
weekend.
