If only someone would produce a routine to pull the same trick with launchd's .plists. Lingon is fine as far as it goes, but it focuses on editing individual .plists and doesn't provide an overview of the characteristics of multiple .plists at a glance in the way crontab2english – or plain old crontab -l – does.
