Okay I give up what are valid "values " for boolean types?

As in 
	retrieve (XXX.all) where XXX.booltype = true

	or

	retrieve (XXX.all) where XXX.booltype = false


	or

	append XXX (booltype = what)

I know that bools are either true or false but I just don't know
how postgres (4.2) indicates these.  Everytime I try things like
	boolvar = 1 to indicate true in the where clause I get
	illegal op for int4... need to cast it.

't' and 'f' (or "t"::bool and "f"::bool).
