Flipper-Zero-macOS-Trash-DotFiles-Cleaner

dotfiles-logo.png

Description:

A simple shell script to run everytime you mount your FLIPPER SD in your MacOS computer, that cleans up all the hidden “._dotfiles” and ".DS_Srore" files that MacOS creates, as log of settings and apps (like for example Time Machine and others), on your SD Card when you mount it.

Usage:

  1. Unmount the SD card from your FlipperZero
  2. Plug it in you MacOS
  3. Open Terminal.app [open spotlight (cmd+space) digit "Terminal" or go to /Applications/Utility]
  4. Clone this repository typing: git clone https://github.com/grugnoymeme/flipperzero-macOS-dotfiles-cleaner.git
  5. Enter the main directory: cd flipperzero-macOS-dotfiles-cleaner
  6. Run: ./dotkilla.sh
  7. Follow the instructions and enjoy!
  • Before deleting all the dotfiles, you will be asked your computer's account password; just type it in the commands prompt (when you type a password in the commands prompt [this is because the script is running this line with the sudo keyword, that means "super user" (root)], the terminal will hide you password and it will seems like you are typing nothing, but nevermind, you are definetly typing it.

** After the script has done his job, you'll see the following lines:

Failed trying to change dir to .Spotlight-V100.    
Bad Pathname: Operation not permitted.    
Failed trying to change dir to .Trashes.    
Bad Pathname: Operation not permitted.    
Failed trying to change dir to .TemporaryItems.    
Bad Pathname: Operation not permitted.

Don't care about them, cause they are default dotfiles that MacOS creates on your SD, but they are not like others ._dotfiles
