These can be added to Finder, Touch Bar or the Services menu, and can be managed in System Preferences. The services are built with [Automator](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/automator) and use the command-line `plutil` program to perform the conversion process.\n\n## Installation\n\nInstall using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):\n\n```bash\nbrew install marcransome/tap/plist-services\n```\n\nAlternatively, download the latest [release](https://github.com/marcransome/plist-services/releases) package, extract the files, then double-click each of the two workflow files in turn, accepting the installation prompts as they appear:\n\n\u003cimg width=\"602\" alt=\"Automator installer\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/679401/160903858-4dada07f-400c-4fc8-81dd-20c70487328f.png\"\u003e\n\n## Usage\n\nTo perform in-place file conversions, select one or more files in a Finder window then right-click to open the contextual menu and choose the appropriate conversion service:\n\n\u003cimg width=\"843\" alt=\"Contextual menu\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/679401/160904785-a5f29d0c-8ee7-4897-9881-ff31fd4b3cad.png\"\u003e\n\n## License\n\n`plist-services` is provided under the terms of the [MIT License](https://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php).\n\n## Contact\n\nEmail me at [marc.ransome@fidgetbox.co.uk](mailto:marc.ransome@fidgetbox.co.uk) or [create an issue](https://github.com/marcransome/plist-services/issues).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmarcransome%2Fplist-services","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmarcransome%2Fplist-services","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmarcransome%2Fplist-services/lists"}
