I want to read binary plist files, using the BinaryStream class. I have some troubles in understanding how they are organized. I have read the content of a System preference's plist file, changed a popup menu in the system preference and re-read the plist file. More than one data is changing in the plist file, it does not seem consistent. Also, using google, the only way to read/write these plist files seems to use Core Foundation (as if these plist files were encrypted). I'm sure it is doable in RB, I just don't know how.

Is there a class available for RB?
