How to show hidden files in Finder (OS X 10.9)?

Hi Apple-lovers and Apple-users!

I haven't found a solution, how to show hidden files in Finder since the update to OS X 10.9.. I know how to show them in the Terminal but I want to see them in the Finder too.
I know the Terminal-commands for showing hidden files in OS X 10.8. ("defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE&&killall Finder") but this doesn't work anymore.

So if somebody has figured it out yet - please help me! 🙂

Yours,
oh_its_a_me

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

Look at mine ^. You don't have to type in the terminal. It works. You may have to refresh the finder.

I did read your post. But I got the oppression you weren't sure if it works or not. I'm after something that will permanently make all files visible (you see, my IQ is above 80).

I did it a while back and was reading my notes without reimplementing, so it does work, but there are a few ways I didn't need tacked on.
