I can follow this script to show or hide hidden files on a mac, it works. Is there a way to add an icon to the finder window that on click toggles this functionality?

Some ideas:

• Make a double-clickable AppleScript file with above commands and drag the icon into your sidebar or top window bar. This article might help.

• Use the Secrets PrefPane to un/set Finder → Show hidden files

• Use the hiddenfiles Dashboard Widget
