Hi Yuma, I don't have a direct answer for you, but here's a suggestion on how to locate the preference file you want. Open up a Finder window and use the Command-Shift-G "Go to folder" shortcut, then type or paste in the location of the Library/Preferences folder for your account: ~/Library/Preferences Have this set to view as list (Command-2), interact, then navigate to the "Date Modified" column and sort (VO-Shift-Backslash) so that you can view the most recently modified preference file.
Then, go and set up a new custom gesture. After you do it, Command-tab back to your Finder window display of preferences, and check which were the most recently modified files (there might be more than one). This was the method I used to find out that the different keyboard language setups were saved in a file named "com.apple.HIToolbox.plist" -- something that I would never have guessed. The acronym stands for "Human Interface Toolbox". Also, if you're paranoid about wanting to keep copies of your most recently modified plists, using the sort by modified date and copying the most recent 50 or so may help if you want to track corrupted plists at a later time. I used to periodically keep a few saved plists just in case I wanted to track down odd account behavior changes. They don't take much room, but this ensures that I get the ones that are being modified by my actions -- whether I know their names or not. HTH.
