# plist-services

`plist-services` provides two macOS Quick Actions for quickly converting property list files (`.plist`) between XML and binary encodings. 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.

## Installation

Install using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):

```bash

brew install marcransome/tap/plist-services

```

Alternatively, 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:



## Usage

To 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:
