and have not been able to find what I think is relaible information
so far.
Uppercase attribute letters set the attribute, lowercase ones clear
them. So "SetFile -a V" makes a file invisible, "SetFile -a v" makes
it, uh, un-invisible.
This is described in the help text that you get by running the tool
with no arguments (I don't know why there isn't a man page.)
