Does anyone know a way to determine programmatically in Cocoa whether or not the user has set the "use a 24-hour clock" option in the Date & Time preferences pane? Accessing NSTimeFormatString through NSUserDefaults gives you the time format for the current locale, not the menu bar clock. I would like to be able to see what the user is using in the menu bar, and then have my application show the time in the same format. I couldn't figure out where this information is stored - presumably in a plist somewhere.

Looks like it's in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.MenuBarClock.plist

fs_usage is good for figuring out things like this.
