Mac OS Finder: Show and hide files [clip] show and hide files or folders

Source: Internet
Author: User

The Finder by default does not show hidden files [clip], to show what to do?

To display, you can either GUI (graphic user interface) and CLI (command line interface) two ways

Cli:

command to display Mac hidden files: Defaults write Com.apple.finder appleshowallfiles-bool true

command to hide Mac hidden files: Defaults write Com.apple.finder Appleshowallfiles-bool false

For convenience, add the command to the. Bash_profile

show= ' defaults write Com.apple.finder appleshowallfiles-bool true '

Hide= ' Defaults write Com.apple.finder appleshowallfiles-bool false '

Just like Ubuntu has a configured viewer, Mac is of course the case

Click Finder, press Control (^) +shift+g, enter/library/preferences, find Com.apple.finder.plist file, open with Xcode.app, modify.

GUI: (OnyX) parameters->finder-> Misc. options-> Show hidden files and folders
