You should never touch a preference .plist file directly. User preferences
are maintained in memory, and the application will write them in and write
them out when it pleases. If you change the plist file directly, your
changes can be overwritten by the application when it writes out the
preferences. The correct approach is to communicate directly with the
defaults system using the shell "defaults" command. m.
