write <domain> <domain_rep> writes domain (overwrites existing)
write <domain> <key> <value> writes key for domain
rename <domain> <old_key> <new_key> renames old_key to new_key
delete <domain> deletes domain
delete <domain> <key> deletes key in domain
import <domain> <path to plist> writes the plist at path to domain
