show/hide desktop items on MacOS
I am a minimalist and I prefer to have a very clean desktop without any items. But I wanna be able to find/open the files in finder
in the folder ~/Desktop.
To make it possible, I just create two aliases: deskon
and deskoff
.
alias deskon='defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop -bool true && killall Finder'alias deskoff='defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop -bool false && killall Finder'
deskoff
by using command deskoff
, I can hide all items from desktop to have a clean desktop with only wallpaper. But the hidden files are still shown in finder
app on the path ~/Desktop
.
deskon
by using command deskon
, I can show the items again.
