| Hola, AppleScripters!
I have a simple app that will allow the user to manipulate application's plist file like changing version numbers and adding copyright info. It simply utilizes shell's Defaults. If you want to edit the copyright notice, then you manipulate NSHumanReadableCopyright. I've noticed that Defaults doesn't accept some special characters. For example, if I want to insert
, then I should type the following.
defaults write /Volumes/SDHC\ MEMORY/Test_package/MyTestApp.app/Contents/Info NSHumanReadableCopyright © Wasabi Things, LLC
Terminal says
defaults[347:903] Unexpected argument Wasabi; leaving defaults unchanged
If I want to insert Hello&Goodbye, Defaults will only insert Hello.
Does anybody know an effective way of using special characters with Defaults?
Thank you for your kind advice.
Yours truly,
Jim |
