Create NSDictionary file in windows(c#)?

My iphone app creates files using the my custom ".ops" extension. using NSDictionary. Nsdictionary goes like this: 

nsdictionary = nsdictionary withObjectsForKeys:
nameField.text , @"name", 
descField.text, @"description", 
author.text, @"author", 
ItemArray, @"values", nil; 
//ItemArrays objects are strings: @"red", @"blue", @"green";

I use writeToFile to save the nsdictionary to "name.ops" in the DocumnetLibrary. However I wonder if using C#, I could make the same file(name.ops) with the same properties(name, desc etc) and the strings array and extension and still be able to import and open that file in my iphone app?

Well I want to make the same app in the windows platform too. Since creating a new .ops file in the iphone small screen is hard. So I want to make it simple to create ops files!

How could I implement this?

so your .ops files are plists with a custom extension?

plists are xml files. You should be able to create them in every language you want. 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>key 1</key>
    <string>value 1</string>
    <key>key 2</key>
    <true/>
    <key>key 3</key>
    <integer>12</integer>
</dict>
</plist>

Open one of your .ops files with TextEdit and see how they look like.
