Hi Satoshi.  launchctl unload doesn't modify keys within
com.myCompany.myAgent.plist, rather it unloads the plist itself from the
launchd mechanism (if I understand what you're suggesting).

Thanks,
Alex

How about this carbon function?

Boolean CFPreferencesAppSynchronize ( CFStringRef applicationID );

Writes to permanent storage all pending changes to the preference data
for the application, and reads the latest preference data from permanent
storage.
