I use

  OS=`uname -s`

  if [ "$OS" = "Darwin" ]
  then
     # all the mac stuff

     add_plist () {
       /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Delete :'"$1" ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist >/dev/null
       /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c 'Add :'"$1"' string "'"$2"'"' ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist >/dev/null
      }

      if [ ~/.bashrc -nt ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist ]
      then
        mkdir -p ~/.MacOSX
        add_plist PATH "$PATH"
        add_plist HISTFILESIZE "$HISTFILESIZE"
        add_plist HISTSIZE "$HISTSIZE"
