If I go into the InfoPlist.strings file and modify the localized
name of the application, the changes don't show up immediately in
the finder. I only saw a change after I restarted my machine.
Is there some way I can kick the finder from the terminal and force
the update?
In my experience, touch the top-level YourAppHere.app directory
('touch' changes mod-date). YMMV.
Other things I've known to work... (these can be automated, FWIW,
using Automater, shell script, keyboard macros, chickens trained to
peck keys, etc.)
1. Archive the app, delete the original, de-archive the app.
2. Copy the app to another volume (e.g. a disk-image suffices),
delete the original, copy back to original location.
For these, it's necessary to delete the app, not just move it to the
Trash. I.e. you either delete it using 'rm -fr ...' in Terminal, or
Move to Trash and Empty Trash.
