Complete Uninstall of ReplicatorG?

[Txoof]

In the process of setting up Jetty firmware, I've managed to do something horrendous to my ReplicatorG installation in OS X.  I've deleted the app from the /Applications folder, removed the ~/.replicatorg file, hunted out ~/Library/Preferences/org.replicatorg.plist, but a fresh install still remembers all my screwed up settings and happily displays them for me when I open it. Where the heck does RepG keep all of it's files?  I've tried looking at the source and tried using fs_usage to try and ferret out all the files, but I just can't seem to find all of them.  Any suggestions you all can offer would be greatly appreciated!

Here's a list of all the ones I know about:

/Applications/ReplicatorG.app

~/.replicatorg/

~/Library/Preferences/org.replicatorg.plist

Thanks for the help!

That should be it on newer versions of RepG. The other thing to try
is empty trash, and
make sure there's no other installations of ReplicatorG in /
Applications, it might be picking up and
old or deleted version.

The preferences are saved in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.java.util.prefs.plist.
However, preferences for other java based apps are there as well. So, open it with
the plist editor, open up Root and then / and then delete replicatorg/ to get
rid of just the ReplicatorG settings.

P.S. you only have the plist editor (property list editor) if you've installed
Apple's developer tools. There are shipped-with-osx command line tools to add/remove/change
settings in .plist files, but at just this moment, I'm not in a position to
work out the correct command for you.

Dan

E.g., /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy & /usr/bin/defaults, the latter being the more
commonly used tool.

BTW, I should have written, "Some preferences are saved". And, while it's possible that
newer versions of RepG are using a separate .plist file now, newer versions may be
sucking old settings out of the old location as part of a "auto migrate your preferences"
operation. So, a quick experiment you might try is to rename that file temporarily
and see if it makes a difference when you start up RepG.

Thanks for the info Dan.  I finally managed to start completely clean.  Whatever I did to my RepG installation was BAD.  The gcode produced caused the build platform to dance in wild circles until it slammed up against a physical limit.  Not good.  I'm going to try again with the Jetty instructions with a clean install.
