Do man defaults in a terminal window to see:
---snip---
defaults [-currentHost | -host hostname] delete [domain [key]]
---sniip--

Hi Guys,
I successfully entered my application in loginwindow.plist through
command line. But unable to delete that entry.
How to remove the my added entry from loginwindow.plist from
command line or shells script?
From net I found one script which remove the entry from
loginwindow.plist,but it remove whole entries from the plist.
The command is:
#!/bin/sh
theApp="your app"
nl=`echo "x" | tr 'x' '\34'` # what is the proper way to set ascii
to a variable?
aaa=`defaults read loginwindow AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary`
bbb=`echo -n "$aaa" | sed "s/^[()]$//;s/},/}$nl/" | tr '\n\34' '\00
\n'| grep -va "$theApp" | tr '\n\00' ',\n' | sed 's/^,$//'`
defaults write loginwindow AutoLaunchedApplicationDictionary "($bbb)"
Waiting for helpful reply.
