For any psychos who want a list of all your installed Pro Tools plugins + manufacturers, here is a shell script that does that Written the old fashioned way (no AI, swearing at xpath)

#!/bin/bash cd "/Library/Application Support/avid/Audio/Plug-Ins" for i in *.aaxplugin */*.aaxplugin ; do NAME=`echo "${i}" | sed 's/\.aaxplugin//'` BUNDLE=`xmllint --xpath \ 'string(//key[contains(., "CFBundleIdentifier")]/following::string[1])' \ "${i}/Contents/Info.plist"` COMPANY=`echo ${BUNDLE} | sed 's/[^.]*.//;s/\..*//'` echo -e "${COMPANY}\t${NAME}" done | sort --ignore-case
