Also, if you like the convenience of the GUI editor, but would like it to preserve white space and comments, it might be worth an enhancement request.

Hi all,

A recent Xcode added a GUI editor for plist files.  It's quite nice,
except when you save it removes all comments and whitespace.  :(

Is there a way to tell Xcode to never use this GUI editor? (I've
discovered you can right-click and do 'Open as plain text file', but I'd
like that to be the permanent behaviour.)


Thanks,
