How to set boolean value in array object in plist

Question

I am trying to change my settings for Textmate by changing its plist. Here is what I have so far:

defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakShellVariables -array-add '{value = "hello"; variable = "TM_HELLO";}'

This will add a new shell variable for Textmate. I want to do this via the command line so that I can script it. The above works fine, but I also want the activated key (which is logical) to be true. Unfortunately, I cannot provide the correct syntax to achieve this. All my attempts lead to the fact that the key is included as a string instead of a logical one. For instance:

defaults write com.macromates.textmate OakShellVariables -array-add '{enabled = true ;value = "hello"; variable = "TM_HELLO";}

defaults write com.apple.dashboard layer-gadgets -array-add "<dict><key>32bit</key><false/></dict>";

:

• <string></string> -
• <false/><true/> - boolean
• <real></real> - real
• <integer></integer> -
