[PD-dev] gui plist

[Dan Wilcox]

I looked through pd_guiprefs.tcl again and I see the domain is already org.puredata.pd.pd-gui on line 65. It was actually be changed to org.puredata ONLY on macOS, so I fixed that in a commit to the current "develop" branch. I made this jump mainly because if we don't do it before the release, it will be harder to change later.

I've tested this domain and the prefs are working fine except for I'm not sure if the single quote escaping is working right as I occiainsionaly see a single quote added to the end of the recent files strings. Will check on this.
