Hi everyone, I am trying to use Boxen to setup my Mac, one step is to install Iterm2 and apply few settings.

For example, I want to disable "use bold font" in new bookmarks

defaults read com.googlecode.iterm2 "New Bookmarks" | grep -i bold
        "Bold Color" =         {
        "Use Bold Font" = 1;
        "Use Bright Bold" = 1;

but I could not how to use defaults to change that setting,

tried few things like following but none of them worked. Just need some advice thanks

defaults write com.googlecode.iterm2 "New Bookmarks/Use Bold Font" -bool FALSE

Looks like those settings can be found in com.googlecode.iterm2"Custom Color Presets"$THEME_NAME"Bold Color". You could use PListBuddy for this; see ~/.osx for examples.

Thanks, I worked out the command, here it is

/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy  -c "Set :"New Bookmarks":0:"Use Bold Font" false" ~/Library/Preferences/com.googlecode.iterm2.plist

Side note, you can also just sync your profile in Dropbox or Git.
