I have some string resources that I've put into plists for easy

include hex values, i.e. "Foo" = "\x42\x12bar". I sort of assumed that
these would be magically transformed when the
+dictionaryWithContentsOfFile: call created all the NSStrings. Not so.
Any suggestions on how best to deal with these?
Just include the characters directly in the plist. You can use the
character palette and/or Unicode Hex Input method if the characters
are not easily typeable.
I should've mentioned - these are existing resources. Changing hundreds
of these by hand is not my idea of fun :). Which is why I was wanting
to let the computer do it.
Second question: In trying to deal with this, I had the bright idea of
using -rangeOfString:@"\x" and handling it in code. XCode doesn't like
this at all, thinking it's supposed to be a hex value. How to get
around this?
-rangeOfString:@"\\x" should work.
Shoulda thought of this myself.
Thanks,
Glen
