The CBXML file extension belongs to CodeBox for Mac, a code-snippet management application for Apple macOS and earlier Mac OS X systems. The file uses a plain-text XML format, so its contents can also be viewed as text.
A CBXML file organizes source-code snippets in a CodeBox library. It is intended primarily for use by CodeBox rather than as a general-purpose interchange format. The format is associated with the Mac version of the software.
Open the file with CodeBox for Mac to use the library and search its source-code snippets. On macOS, opening the file in CodeBox is preferable because a text editor will show the XML but will not provide the library features.
A plain-text editor can be used to inspect the contents of a CBXML file.
CBXML files are not normally converted to another file format. Open the library in CodeBox for Mac and copy individual snippets into another application if needed.
