Dynamic plists

Hi,

I maintain math/scilab and am preparing to update it. This port has a
huge plist (slightly under 15000 lines), hundreds of which change
depending on what options are selected. It is a bit of a pain to
update. The porters handbook makes vague reference to dynamic plists -
so I was wondering, would this be a good idea? And if so, what is the
best way to make one?

Thanks,
