Renaming
You are the third person to make this STUPID COMMENT. READ THE F*CKING HINT!!!!!!!!!!! Only the VISUAL name displayed by the finder (or other GUI apps) is changed, the file/folder still has the same name, YOU (the USER, not the SYSTEM) JUST CAN'T SEE IT!!!
Renaming
Thats exactly where the madness comes in! I want to see the real name so if I script it or use the terminal then things make sense. If the Finder shows a different name than the terminal I'll be completely lost and confused. Start banging my head on the wall. And go Linux.
Re: Renaming
Yep. I understand. But I would not put a Linux box in the hands of my -- french-speaking -- son. That's probably the biggest difference between Linux and OSX. Ease of use for anyone + state of the art UNIX (with NO localizations/modifications) for the geeks on one and the same machine (just create two accounts).

So turn on "Always show file extensions" in the finder, and it will always show the real name, even for folders modified with this hint.
