Remove items from the Services menu doesn't seem to work with Tiger
Authored by: philiph on Dec 20, '05 10:18:12PM
I just tried this script on Tiger and it didn't work. Every time I tried to remove a service in the script I get this:

6 * toggle NSServices OFF for "Quicksilver.app" ? y
 text encoding or xml code problem! fixing text encoding...
 fixing unsuccessful! returning app to original state. skipping app.
Here's the sh -x output:

+ echo -n '6 * toggle NSServices OFF for "Quicksilver.app" ? '
6 * toggle NSServices OFF for "Quicksilver.app" ? + read ans
y
+ '[' y = q ']'
+ '[' y = p ']'
+ '[' y = b ']'
+ '[' '!' y = y ']'
+ '[' '!' '     <key>NSServices</key>' = ' <key>NSServices</key>' ']'
+ echo ' text encoding or xml code problem! fixing text encoding...'
 text encoding or xml code problem! fixing text encoding...
+ sudo cp -f info.plist info.plist_encodebak
+ correct_encoding info.plist
+ sudo tr -s '
