Prefs Editor Release Notes

New: A defaults write command can be put into the pasteboard via cmd-shift-C on a selected item. Caution: If you copy an array or dictionary, the copied values will lose their type information and become strings, due to limited support by the defaults command (exception: 'Data' entries remain intact).
New: The Domains window can remain open after opening a domain. See menu bar under File / Options.
New: The window positions are now remembered. See menu bar under File / Options.
Fix: Opening prefs whose plist file is reached via a symlink works now.
Fix: Opening prefs whose name contains non-ASCII characters works now.

The app is now native for Apple Silicon (ARM CPUs).
Now support Dark Mode (the "Data" hex editor is still black on white, though).
Improves vertical placement of windows on macOS Big Sur and Monterey.
Now shows the correct byte count for "Data" fields > 32 bytes (was always showing "24").

Can now open the user's globals domain from the File menu (hold down the Option key to get the host's globals).
Now remembers the Domain Chooser window's size.
Fix: Pasting copied dictionary items into an expanded array item does not instead paste just the dict's elements any more.
Fix: When using the Filter, a matched array or dict will allow to see all its children (i.e. the filter will not be applied to it any more).

Change: Now built as a 64 bit application, for macOS 10.9 and later (a 32 bit version for OSX 10.6-10.8 is still available, too).
Fix: No more crashes when editing a "Data" typed entry (via hex editor).
Fix: Date values observe the local time zone correctly.
Fix: Avoids a recurring error message when sorting by date in the DomainChooser due to missing date entry.
New: Space key can now be used to edit the current row's value.
New: Double clicking a folder row expands / collapses it.
Change: Prevents Auto-Tabbing in Sierra, as it's not working correctly with Xojo-built apps.
Changes to Data (hex) editor:
- Fixes cursor right/left movement when there's a selection in the hex column.
- Fix: In Insert mode, typing a new value won't zero the last byte any more.
- Fix: Copying from the hex column and pasting back there does not switch to text column any more.
- New: Return and Enter keys activate the Save button.
- Change: Starts with Insert instead of Overwrite mode.

Enabling the prefs key "kill cfprefsd" now actually works.
The prefs key "kill cfprefsd" can be switched on/off via a new "Changes Restart cfprefsd" command under the File / Options menu.

Name and Value fields can be edited faster by double clicking their cell.
Boolean values can be edited now (yes, y, true and 1 count as YES, everything else as NO).
Data values are now edited in a new modal hex editor window.
Does not kill cfprefsd any more by default (can be enabled by adding a boolean key "kill cfprefsd" to the app's prefs).

New: Shows a dialog at start that lets you search through all known prefs files (based on the "defaults domains" command).
Bugfix: Undo now works with Boolean values (checkbox) and while editing a listbox cell.
Bugfix: Clicking the open/close triangle to open a Dictionary or Array element while the row is already selected works now.
Bugfix: Can now identify the plist file if its name contains blanks or colons (":").
Bugfix: Limits the Value column width to 10000 pixels so that the list doesn't lose its value column with very long values.

When opening by name ("Open Bundle ID..."), the case of the bundle ID is now taken from its plist file.
Improves list columns resizing, and adds a horizontal scrollbar is window is too narrow.
List column widths and window size are now remembered between launches.
Raw (hex) data is now shown in groups of four bytes.
Bugfix: Listbox doesn't react to clicks in background any more.

Detects multiple prefs for the same Bundle ID and lets the user choose which one to open.

Undo implemented.
Copy + Paste can now handle multiple items, allowing you do Select All, Copy, then Paste into another app's prefs.
Now rejects opening files ending in ".plist" that are neither in /Library/Preferences nor in ~/Library/Preferences.
Bugfix: Host preferences (those in /Library/Preferences) can be opened now.
Known issue: Sandboxed prefs cannot be opened at the moment. Not sure why (the defaults command can do it, curiously).

Can now add items to empty dictionaries and arrays.
Adding an item will now immediately go into edit mode for its value.
New About window that can be closed with Cmd-W.
No more crash when adding nested dicts or arrays (they became immutable).
"Open by ID" lets you choose to open the hosts (global) prefs from /Library/Preferences.
Now sets a window proxy icon, pointing to the probable location of the affected plist file, may it be the global (in /Library/Preferences) or even a sandboxed file.
Array items sort better when there's more than 9 items.
Fixes a typo in the title of EnterBundleIDWin.

Adds self-updating via Sparkle.
The app is now code signed.
Now builds as Cocoa app (formerly Carbon).
Enables Retina graphics mode.
Fix: When adding an item, it now gets properly selected.
Fix: Preserves selection and open containers better, especially after sorting.
Refactoring: Moves all list specific code from DefaultsWin into DefaultsListBox.
Refactoring: value is not stored in CellTag(row, 1) any more. Instead, RowInfo.Value fetches it dynamically.
