How do I view the hidden Library folder on an external hard drive?

I couldn’t figure out how to view the hidden user library folder on Mountain Lion, part of the reason why is because there is a space in the name of my external hard drive. Having a space in the name is ok, here’s how I finally got it to work.

1. Open Terminal.

2. Type chflags nohidden

3. (Leave a space after nohidden)

4. Drag the user directory from Finder to your terminal window.

5. Add /Library to the end of the folder structure.

6. Hit Enter.

Result:

chflags nohidden /Volumes/DRIVENAME/Users/YOURNAME/Library

Ah! Success!
