HideMe

I used HideMe 1.12 to render a particularly stubborn folder visible. The said folder was made invisible using File Buddy 7.5 under Jaguar about a month ago, but the same utility wouldn't work making the folder visible again. Tried other utilities, too, but none seemed to work: they'd change the visibility bundle (?) but the folder still wouldn't be visible in Finder windows. HideMe worked, by opening a Finder window showing the contects of the folder. Moving up one level, it also showed the now visible folder. I'm aware that the other programs not working might have something to do with a system (Panther) quirk/problem on my computer, but still, this little utility saved my ass (or at least 6.6 GB of personal, un-backed-up work). Otherwise, I appreciate the program's small size, as well as the ability to create a listing of folders I might have hidden - making folders invisible and then forgetting about them has happened before… All in all, small, simple, sweet and (so far) stable.
