I am writing a "Foundation tool" - a command-line utility that uses

need a
bundle identifier to do this, but if it's just a tool, can it have a
bundle
identifier?
Or, do I have to use CFPreferences?
You can use CFPreferences if you wish, but if you use NSUserDefaults,
the defaults will be written to a plist file with the same name as
your executable if it has no bundle identifier. That might be good
enough unless your tool has a very common name or something.
I haven't tried it, but I've read on ADC that there is a way to embed
an info.plist file in a tool by using this linker flag:
-sectcreate __TEXT __info_plist $(SOURCE_ROOT)/$(INFOPLIST_FILE)
