Just a quick post, but I found out how to show the ‘Library’ folder in Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) without using the Terminal or other fancy shenanigans.
All you need to do is, whilst in Finder, press alt and click on the `Go` menu. This should show an icon to take you to your Library folder.
NOTE: I took this project on myself and was not asked by Aberystwyth University to work on it. Aberystwyth university (at the time of writing this) has had no involvement in this project. Nor do they have anything todo with the views in this post or this post in general.
I’ve just open sourced a small project of mine called Hari. It’s a Content Management System with no database, so could be handy for people who don’t have database access or dont need a fully fledged CMS.
You can find the source code on https://github.com/matthojo/Hari
Alfred is one of the most useful tools I think I own on my Mac it speeds up production speeds like nothing you’ve ever seen.
One of my biggest gripes with Mac OS X though is the faff it takes to show hidden files / folders (including ‘Library’ in Lion). As a result of this I have made an Alfred extension to give you the ability to show / hide hidden files.
All you need to do is open Alfred and enter ‘hiddenfiles show‘ or ‘hiddenfiles hide‘, it’s as easy as that!
