Hiding Slaves

As I was testing the master/slave pairs in my reply to Paul's message, it occurred to me that in OS X it is possible to hide slave scripts so that they don't appear in the menu, where they have no place, and so that their path is easily built:

set the hidFolder to alias ("" & (path to scripts folder) & ".hid")
-- alias "dx2:Users:jd:Library:Scripts:.hid:"



The following line in the Terminal

cd ; cd Library/Scripts ; sudo mkdir .hid

will create the invisible folder ".hid" within the Scripts folder to serve as a container for utility scripts that are never run independently.
