I read it back in using: [theDictionary withContentsOfFile:@"foo"];
The file is intended to be read in automatically on app launch and
saved automatically at termination.
The project is non document based
This works fine under PB. Also, FWIW examining "foo" with BBEdit
shows what I expect.
However, when I launch the build instead of running under PB the
file is not read in.
The working directory may not be the same under all situations. It
is "/" when the Finder launches you (on current builds of X). You
should compute the full path to the file and use that to open it.
