# Source: http://github.com/kballard/osx-plist
# 
# This backend only works on MacOSX. It supports everything using a compiled CoreFoundation helper
# in ext directory, and uses native Cocoa CoreFoundation API calls. This backend invokes 
# CFPropertyListWriteToStream.
# 
# Should work for any 10.5 (Leopard), 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Mac OSX distribution.
# It will do nothing on non-mac platforms (eg Linux etc).
