How to hide files in Nautilus
Author: lexhung16 Sep
In Linux, files which name start by a dot ‘.’ are hidden by default in most file managers. However, there are cases when we want to hide dot-file from our view. For examples:
- Desktop folder in our home folder.
- Dropbox
- lost+found directory at the partition root
- …
In Nautilus (default GNOME file manager) there’s a way. Add a file named
.hidden
with each line is the name of the file/folder you want to hide.
For example, if you want to hide Desktop from home folder you may type this command in the terminal:
$ echo "Desktop" > ~/.hidden
Note: This trick only works in Nautilus. It won’t work in Konqueror or Dolphin. I don’t know if it works in other file managers or not.
