The "Old-Style ASCII Property Lists" only have minor difference from regular one. For example, the regular one looks like:
"Insert Element" = "Insert Element"; "ErrorString_1" = "An unknown error occurred.";
The "Old-Style ASCII Property Lists" only add two more chars:
{ "Insert Element" = "Insert Element"; "ErrorString_1" = "An unknown error occurred."; }
You only need to make sure the new string is added before the final '}' char, and we are done.
Despite the "Old-Style ASCII Property Lists" has ASCII in name, an UTF8 encoded file is perfectly fine.
