Terminal: Show and Hide Hidden Files
This is useful for anyone who SSHs from their mac into their iPhones and for various other purposes as well. It's also something I am asked about frequently.
Show Hidden Files:
----------
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
killall Finder
----------
Hide Hidden Files (Redundant, no?)
----------
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE
killall Finder
----------

This is one of my favorite tricks.
When I feel lazy I just use Onyx.

Also a favorite trick of mine. Use to just open the files by navigating with Transmit. Don't use that program any more.
