Is File Buddy still available? That would be the easiest. Easier than ResEdit.
Yup. Great tool, File Buddy is. Available for OS 8/9 and X. Check that "invisible" box and it will just as easily find invisible files as visible ones. It'll even search for a specific string within files... Just like Sherlock and other such tools.
IOW, setting a file to be invisible is a dumb way to hide it from prying eyes.

Running OS9.1 on a 8600/G3/500. Can someone teach me how to hide a folder on a 2nd internal drive from my kids & wife ?
Don't hide. Encrypt.
Or (*shock*) trust yer loved ones?
Or maybe not use the computer you share with da wifey to chat with your bf?
