显示/隐藏隐藏文件而不重新启动finder？

我了解到以下是切换隐藏文件的可见性的方法：

defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
# replace YES with NO to hide hidden files
killall -HUP Finder /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app

有没有一种方法可以显示/隐藏隐藏文件而不杀死Finder？

编辑：自El Capitan起，这似乎不再起作用。killall Finder似乎是现在的唯一方法。

这是我目前使用的El Capitan方法，也适用于Mountain Lion和更老的

set newHiddenVisiblesState to "YES"
try
    set oldHiddenVisiblesState to do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles"
    if oldHiddenVisiblesState is in {"1", "YES"} then
        set newHiddenVisiblesState to "NO"
    end if
end try
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles " & newHiddenVisiblesState & "; killall Finder"

对于小牛和优胜美地…

您无需重新启动Finder，只需刷新窗口即可。

此Applescript将切换状态并刷新...

set newHiddenVisiblesState to "YES"
try
    set oldHiddenVisiblesState to do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles"
    if oldHiddenVisiblesState is in {"1", "YES"} then
        set newHiddenVisiblesState to "NO"
    end if
end try
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles " & newHiddenVisiblesState


tell application "Finder"
    set theWindows to every Finder window
    repeat with i from 1 to number of items in theWindows
        set this_item to item i of theWindows
        set theView to current view of this_item
        if theView is list view then
            set current view of this_item to icon view
        else
            set current view of this_item to list view

        end if
        set current view of this_item to theView
    end repeat
end tell

感谢ganbustein对改进隐藏/显示子程序

在macOS Sierra 10.12.4及更高版本上，您可以按⌘+ Shift+ . _（句号）在Finder中切换隐藏文件。

后期编辑：自2018年8月18日b5起，当前也可在Mojave上使用。
