I think it's "MacOS:Users:username:Library:Safari:Bookmarks.plist".

On second inspection, you are right. Unfortunately, this file is for Safari's internal use only. I was hoping to write a general purpose .plist file that Safari could open ... but, I guess not.

Since I don't fully understand what you say, I wonder: are you referring to the fact that the plist is not stored as text, but as binary? Just in case you're not aware, all plist editors (Property List Editor and XMLLib, for instance) transparently open and save binary-formatted as well as text-formatted plists.

No. I liked the way Safari displayed bookmarks with disclosure triangles next to folders and was wondering if I could duplicate this for other uses. I guess not.
