#767 Add Copyright to Mac OSX .plist files

[Mark Clayton]

Hi,

I have a feature request for the Mac OS X version. It would be nice to have a line on the .plist file reflecting the copyright string. When a user queries additional information on an application the copyright can be included. The change is simply adding three lines to each of the four plist files in the Xcode directory:

<key>NSHumanReadableCopyright</key>
<string>© 2003-2014 Copyright Rony Shapiro
     All rights reserved</string>

I have included a patch the adds the necessary lines to all four files.

I hope you find this patch helpful!

Thanks,
Mark Clayton

Thanks for the patch. But I couldn't apply it as is. Could you please re-generate it with “git format-patch”, preferably in either unified or context diff formats?

I can make the same changes “by hand", but that would mess up the author/committer information.

Thanks,
Saurav.

Sure thing, Saurav! Try this patch file instead and let me know if it’s still not a good format for you. But it’s fine with me if you hand code it. I don’t need any credit.

Did you see my support request post about putting the correct version number in the .plist files? Any thoughts?

Many Thanks! Mark

I didn’t see any patch with your last post, so I just edited and applied the previous one. The changes (dce519f) are in repository.

But, pwsafe’s About dialog has hard-coded strings. It doesn’t get them from the plist.

Also, the pwsafe-{i386,llvm,64}.plist are obsolete. They are used only in pwsafe.xcodeproj, which cannot be built anymore since it requires Xcode3 and Xcode3 cannot compile c++11.

In that regard, the documentation for building on OS X is outdated. The only meaningful Xcode project file now is pwsafe-xcode6.xcodeproj. All references to building on/for previous platforms need to be removed. Whatever is built with pwsafe-xcode6 can run on OS X 10.5 (Intel only, but I haven’t tested), but that’s about it.

Oh, and I missed your post about putting the correct version number in the .plist files. Please post the link.

Thanks,
Saurav.

Thanks for making the changes! Sorry about no attachment. (I see two replies from me in the mail chain and only one has the attachment!?!)

I’ve been loosely following the Mac OS X changes but I didn’t realize that the instructions are outdated.

Thanks for all you efforts on the project!
