[bfether at mac.com]

If you have installed the Developer tools, open the Property List 
Editor (under /Developer/Applications).

File->Open and open the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist

Click on the Root item, then click on the "New Child" button.

Type AppleShowAllFiles to create a new child.  Set the Class to Boolean 
and the Value to Yes.

Save. Then quit the Property List Editor.

Then relaunch the Finder.
