My preference is the "Boolean" type from "MacTypes.h", which is more explicitly a true/false flag than "UInt8", or its siblings.

Yes, a search of the Mac headers does reveal at least one "bool" in a struct: "CGEventTapInformation". Using a "bool" as a function return type or a function call parameter type isn't a problem, as all integral arguments and return values get promoted to 32-bits in both PPC and Intel calling conventions.

Moving forward, I'm not opposed to using a uint8 instead of a bool. Would that be a better option?
