Great little utility to show (and re-hide) files and folders that are hidden, especially with Lion now hiding the user Library by default.

Russell's at it again. Tryin' to make our Mac lives a bit easier.

It's not gonna cure cancer - but then.... ;-)

Thanks pal; it's in the menu bar, and it will stay there, if only for the force empty trash and toggling of file visibility features.

(P.S.) I love the price ;-)

I see no reason to keep the user library folder hidden ever, so if your using this app for "just" that then just run this command in terminal: "chflags nohidden ~/Library" no quotes. To go back change nohidden to hidden in the command.

Looks like a a nice simple app, dev does make great apps and plug-ins, I own one of them so give this bugger a try if you like the screenshots, or better yet, download it!! It's free and it's not on MAS! I think I might grab it just for that reason. Thank you Mr. Gray.
