This module is a low-level interface to the Mac OS X Property List (plist) format. You probably shouldn't use this in applications--build interfaces on top of this so you don't have to put all the heinous multi-level object stuff where people have to look at it. You can parse a plist file and get back a data structure. You can take that data structure and get back the plist as XML. If you want to change the structure inbetween that's your business. :) You don't need to be on Mac OS X to use this. It simply parses and manipulates a text format that Mac OS X uses.
Binary packages can be installed with the high-level tool pkgin (which can be installed with pkg_add) or pkg_add(1) (installed by default). The NetBSD packages collection is also designed to permit easy installation from source.
The pkg_admin audit command locates any installed package which has been mentioned in security advisories as having vulnerabilities.
Please note the vulnerabilities database might not be fully accurate, and not every bug is exploitable with every configuration.
