An AppleScript to quickly show or hide hidden files
Authored by: frogstomp on Apr 10, '03 02:13:49PM

This is strange for me. I can not seem to get this script to re-
launch the Finder after selecting 'invisible' or 'visable'.

The script seems to hang at 'delay 1'

It works for you, I am curious to understand why not for
myself?

Just as a note from my experience working out this script, the
reason I have `tell application "Finder" to quit ' at the
beginning of the script is, if I had that line anywhere else in my
script, I was unable to relaunch the finder. Also to note, that
whenever I was unable to Script Launch the finder, the defaults
attribute would not change... Strange hey.

Thanks for the reply and suggestions, I am learning a lot by
other peoples code.

cheers!
