An undocumented "feature" can help you do it in Finder

Run the command "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true"

Just so you choice Disk Inventory X

 

[LastZion]

Run the command "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true"

That through terminal?

Thanks. I needed a replacement for "WinDirStat" and this looks quite close. No coincidence either since at the bottom of the Disk Inventory X page it says WinDirStat was done by his mate.
