  Description     : Extension for Nautilus to hide files without renaming them

Nautilus Hide is a simple Python extension for the Nautilus file manager that
adds options to the right-click menu to hide or unhide files.

The extension hides the files without renaming them (i.e. without prefixing a
dot ('.') or suffixing a tilde ('~')).
it does that by adding their names to the folder's '.hidden' file, which
Nautilus reads to hide the listed files the next time you open or refresh the
folder.

I'm the upstream author.
The ".hidden" file is a very useful feature. However, it's very hidden.
Because of that, most people probably don't know about it.
The major objective of this extension is to make this feature more visible, and
add a shortcut to it along the way.
