NSPropertyListSerialization & nibtool problems

Hi,

I am trying to generate a dictionary file to be used with nibtool to translate a nib file. I have found that nibtool requires an NSPropertyListOpenStepFormat strings file format and I cannot use the NSPropertyListSerialization method because I always get the message "kCFPropertyListOpenStepFormat not supported for writing". I had to write a custom routine to write the dictionary to the old format (with a \0 character between each character) and I wanted to know if it correct to do so ? I also have the problem that non-US are not correctly written to the nib file: what encoding format should I use when creating the .strings file ?

In the nibtool man page, it is written the following statement:

nibtool -w nFile.nib -d file.strings file.nib
Reloads in the translation dictionary file.strings and writes
out a new file nFile.nib with translated strings.

But after several tries, I had to write the following statement:

nibtool file.nib -w nFile.nib -d file.strings

Is there any mistakes in the documentation ?

Thanks for any help.
