1. First show how to hide a folder. (files and folders are operated in exactly the same way, which is omitted later.) Suppose there is a Pythonar directory under your Home directory, and there is a folder called Invisible.

2. Then click it, rename it with F2 (or Fn + F2), then press the home button and enter a decimal point (.) At the front.

3. Then, click Home, and then click Pythonar to return to the previous "invisible" location. Sure enough, the folder is gone.

4. About showing hidden folders, you can use the relevant settings of the file browser. But it's too troublesome, so we might as well do it at the terminal. So now please open the terminal. Go to the Pythonar directory.

5. Then use the command: ls-a to show everything in that directory. You will see ". Can't see" three things. The first represents the current directory and the second represents the parent directory. The most important thing is the third, which is your hidden directory.

6. Use the mv command to rename it:

Mv. Can't see. Can see.

In this way, it is not only visible, but also changed its name.

Go back to the previous directory again, and you can see that the folder has come back.

Ps: you can use the command nautilus ~ / Pythonar to switch back to this directory between terminals.
