Just in case you haven’t noticed that:

Archive Utility in Leopard comes with a hidden prefPane.

Question: how to find it ?

Solution:

• Open finder
• Navigate to: System -> Library -> Core Services
• Right-Click Archive Utility and select Show Package Content
• A new Finder windows pops up
• Navigate to: Contents -> Resources
• and there you’ll find: Archives.prefPane

The next stumble: Secrets

The project is hosted at Google Code

Secrets lets you customize many Mac OS settings that are hidden or incomplete.

Many of these values can harm your system if used improperly. Use it at your own risk.

Its a prefPane which allows access to many (hidden) system- and application settings. Usualy those settings can be accessed via command-line (defaults) but aren’t we mac-users ? aren’t we always looking for a gui-based solution ? for sure we are….so get it. The application is developed by the Quicksilver team and currently in beta-status.

Found that application via daringfireball.net

Alternative to Wizzard i mentioned in this thread is Show*Hide Hidden Files

Maybe versiontracker is a good download source in this case.

The application looks small and simple

Actually i am not sure if i should continue with Wizzard or this small application.

Best regards
