I don't have that file; but Travis pointed me to another preferences file I had
missed in /Library/Preferences which was named com.LDView.plist. I guess I
missed it because of the com. prefix which the file in my own preferences
directory didn't have, or maybe I didn't even look there, I'm not sure.
Anyway, removing that one has allowed me to start LDView again, so all is better
now. I've sent the offending file to Travis too for analysis; but at least it
works again now.
Yay!
