You can hide a file on disk in OS X by putting a "." in front of the file name:
on HideAFile pFilePath put pFilePath into tDestPath set the itemDel to "/" put last item of pFilePath into tFileName put "." & tFileName into last item of tDestPath rename pFilePath to tDestPath end HideAFile In OS 9, you need to set the "invisible bit", which I think would require an external.
