I got a (MacOS Error code: -4960) when trying to open a file that I
created with this command:
$ strings ~/Library/Mail/Signatures/*webarchive | bbedit
I get the same error if I redirect to 'sigs.txt' and then try to
open the file in bbedit directly.
I can vi the file just fine, and in the terminal I don't see any
weird characters:
The resultant file begins with the binary plist marker, but it
actually isn't a binary plist, so you are running afoul of the feature
in BBEdit which lets you automatically edit binary plists a text.
I've logged a bug so we can look into the problem and see if the
situation can be improved.
Meanwhile, since the binary plist marker isn't particularly useful
when just looking at the string dump, try this:
strings test.webarchive | grep -v "^bplist00$" | bbedit
