How to create plist using Zwoptex?

Question

I am new in Cocos2d game developing. I have use more images for CCSprite animations. I am using that image like below code :

CCAnimation *animate=[CCAnimation animation];
[animate addFrameWithFilename:@"Criter1.png"];
[animate addFrameWithFilename:@"Criter2.png"];
[animate addFrameWithFilename:@"Criter3.png"];
[animate addFrameWithFilename:@"Criter4.png"];
CCAnimate *animation=[CCAnimate actionWithDuration:0.3f animation:animate restoreOriginalFrame:YES];
CCRepeatForever *repeat=[CCRepeatForever actionWithAction:animation];
[sprite runAction:repeat];

But i want to create a .plist fie and use that in my code. So how can i make .plist file and use it in my code ?

// First add that .plist file and .png  in your project.

[[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] addSpriteFramesWithFile:@"sample.plist"];// retrive plist

NSMutableArray* CharAnim = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (int i = 0; i < 15; i++)
{
    CCSpriteFrame *frame = [[CCSpriteFrameCache sharedSpriteFrameCache] spriteFrameByName:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"image%d.png",i]];
    [CharAnim addObject:frame];
}

CCAnimation *animate=[CCAnimation animationWithSpriteFrames:CharAnim delay:0.045f];// Animation duration
CCAnimate *animation=[CCAnimate actionWithAnimation:animate];
CCRepeatForever *repeat=[CCRepeatForever actionWithAction:animation];// for repeat forever
[sprite runAction:repeat];// add on your sprite

I think this will help you. :)
