For a desktop app, you could build a path relative to the mainstack. The
plist would be one level up. Set the itemDelimiter to slash, get the
filename of the mainstack, chop off the last two items, and put
"info.plist" after that.
But I don't know anyone who handles it that way. Generally the version
info is just saved to the stack as a custom property where it can be
read directly. Is there something in particular that you have to get
from the plist file?
