Very cool, I'm still kinda confused why .DS_Store is the identifier for such a folder but still cool Thanks

    On Unix and Unix-like systems when a file or directory name starts with a . its hidden by default.

    This convention is maintained in the UI for MacOS so you don't see the .DS_Store directory unless you ask to show hidden files.
