How do I make symbolic links invisible in the Finder?
Solution 1:
To hide:
chflags -h hidden <symlink>
To show again:
chflags -h nohidden <symlink>
Solution 2:
Reading fail.
-P # perform action on symlink instead of following it
This flag has strange indenting in SetFile -h
, and I must have just ignored it assuming it was related to the -m
date flag.
So,
SetFile -P -a V my_symlink
