Blessing is easily (and probably more safely) done by hand. Inside each
system folder I create a folder called Hide System. To unbless the folder
just move the System file into that new folder. To bless the folder just
move it out again. That's all. Takes about as long as using blesser
but works on any Mac that doesn't have a copy of blesser. And it saves
having to mess with patching applications etc.
