If it's just for the two strings (CFBundleShortVersionString and ProjectName ??), then how about a simple perl script?

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $file = shift;
open(PLIST, $file) || die "Could not open $file\n";
my $getArg = undef;
my $lastArg;
map {
if ($getArg) {
chomp();
s/.*<string>//;
s/<\/string>.*//;
print "$getArg = $_\n";
}
$getArg = ($_ =~ /.*CFBundleShortVersionString.*/)?'version':($_ =~ /.*ProjectName.*/)?'Category':undef;
$lastArg = $1;
} <PLIST>;
exit(0);


Save the above to a file, make it executable, run it with the name of the plist file as only argument.

Hello -



Looks like every application I install has a file  called Info.plist

Its an XML file about the program. Does anyone know if there is already an
XML parser I can use out there to parse this file or do I have to write my
own XML parser?




I just need to read the product name and version from this file.
