Details

I created this command-line utility because I'm tired of manually re-applying the mod after each OS X update.

It only changes /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Localizable.strings and makes a backup of it at /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Localizable_backup.strings
