• Thread-topic: Textual project format for XCode

If you open the xcodeproj package then you'll see a file called
project.pbxproj. 
It's in the Plist version 1.0 format (like pseudo XML :-) which is text
format.

There's a command line utility called plutil which will convert it to
real XML if you need. Ie
	Cd where-ever
	Plutil -convert xml1 -e text project.pbxproj.

This will produce a file call project.text in the project package.
Don't worry if you accidentally convert the file to XML format cos Xcode
reads it and converts it back to plist format. I guess Apple are tending
in that direction. 

The XML block hierarchy is long but not complicated.
