Want to convert plist to text

I want to convert plist to text because I accidently deleted Sticky widget and want to get the text back (via Time machine) then just create a document with the information.


I need something non techinical - I googled it but was not easy to find a simple solution. I tried downloading Apple developer tools but took so long I cancelled the down load. I tried an internet convertor but the file was blank. I know it is not as I can see the actualy text but failing all this I will edit the file manually but that is tedious work.


Thank you.

Not quite sure your problem. Open plist with TextWranger.app and it is text. You can copy and paste into TextEdit.app if that helps (plain text.)
