does mySQL support a boolean data type?

I ran a search through the mySQL manual and google and could not find a
satisfactory answer. Does mySQL support the declaration of a boolean
data type? Currently I am using VARCHAR(6)s with either 'TRUE' or
'FALSE' and would like to cut down on the storage.

Thanks in advance,

Dan Anderson
