PrefEdit Screenshots
After launching PrefEdit, the different components (preference domains) of the Mac OS X preferences database will be listed. PrefEdit can automatically find the domain which is responsible to hold the preference settings of a given application.
Detail information about preference domains can be shown in an inspector panel.
You can search after settings and their names in the complete preferences database of Mac OS X.
You can view and change any aspect of the raw preference settings, communicating directly with the preferences subsystem of Mac OS X.
PrefEdit can automatically detect if an application is providing metadata for certain preference settings. In this case, the full documentation for this setting can be displayed.
PrefEdit is capable of decoding preference manifests for the Managed Client feature of Mac OS X.
Another advanced feature of PrefEdit is to visualize Mac OS X's internal search path for preferences. If a setting is available in multiple preference domains, you will see exactly which one takes effect.
If necessary, PrefEdit can also open preferences files directly. The built-in property list editor can fully edit all parts of preferences files or general property list files.
