Also, is it possible via applescript to change the visibility of a folder?

This will do it; however, the folder will appear dimmed until the enclosing folder is closed and reopened. After that, it will be invisible.


set foo to choose folder
set dot to "."
tell application "Finder"
	set the name of foo to dot & name of foo
	update parent of foo
end tell
