These commands seem to apply to pre-Tiger OS X systems, in which the  
Launch Services caches were

/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.6B.csstore
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.UserCache.csstore

I don't think they would work for Tiger, in which the Launch Services  
caches are

/Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices-*.csstore

Using -f with rm seems a bit dangerous, but maybe I'm just getting  
paranoid. In any case, thanks for the pointer to CLIX -- looks like a  
useful application.
