NAME
pbs -- general helper tool SYNOPSIS
pbs [-debug] [-dump_pboard] [-dump_userdefs] [-flush_pboard] [-flush_userdefs] language1 language2 ... DESCRIPTION
pbs is an agent for the Services menu. It scans for and vends available Services, to populate the Services menu. pbs is NOT related to the pasteboard. The pasteboard is managed by the pboard agent. pbs normally runs the first time Services are needed in any login session. You may run it manually for debugging Services. If run without any options, pbs will scan for changed Services, cache them along with their English localization on a private pasteboard, and immediately update the Services menu in all running apps. It will also log about any invalid Services declarations in Info.plist. This is useful when developing or testing Services, because it immediately applies any changes. ServicesMenu.strings files for a localization are loaded only when an app running under that localization shows the Services menu. You may pass pbs language codes (e.g. "fr") to cause it to load that localization immediately. pbs has additional options that are useful for debugging, in particular the -dump_pboard option. The complete list of options is: -debug Output debugging information regarding what pbs is doing. -dump_pboard Prints the private pasteboard containing the current Services information. You can use this to determine which apps are providing Ser- vices and where they are located on the filesystem. -dump_userdefs Prints the userdef cache of Services information. pbs caches Services information in its userdefs to avoid scanning the entire system every boot. Changed apps are still detected via FSEvents, so there is no need to flush the userdef cache when installing a new Service. -flush_pboard Erases the private pasteboard containing Services information. The next time the Services menu is shown, pbs will scan for changed Ser- vices and update the pasteboard. -flush_userdefs Erases the userdef cache. -flush Equivalent to -flush_pboard and -flush_userdefs, entirely resetting pbs. The next time Services information is needed, pbs will do a com- plete rescan for apps vending Services, and read their plist. Note: this rescan may be very expensive! HISTORY
