Convert .plist into xml?

The online converter I used to use isn't working anymore... I used this: Convert Apple Property list from binary to text XML

Does anyone know any other way to make my .plists readable and editable? (im on windows.)

install erica's utilities from cydia. after that you can just execute
plutil -c xml1 filename.plist
directly on your iphone (either via SSH or using mobile terminal) and there you go.

If you have Perl and understand the command line (a little) you can also use my plutil app:

if you mean my method using plutil, it just converts the existing file so you can open, read and alter it afterwards. easiest method available as far as I know.

Thank you NetMage! The online converter has been sketchy with downtime, with this I could make my own online converter!

well, not really as far as I know ... like I said: just install erica's utilities and execute
plutil -c xml1 file.plist
on your iphone, that'll do the job, is very quick and anyone can do it.

regards
