Nurbs curves visibility?

Hi all,
Just wondering if someone could help me, i'm trying to make a simple script that allows me to press a key to turn off nurbs curves visibility, then when i press the same key again it turns them back on again, any ideas would be cool,
Thanks, Jimmer.

assign two hotkeys next to each other one to turn on one to turn off visibilty. you dont really need a script to do it.

Here ya go. Save the following code in a file called tglCurveVis.mel and create an user hotkey assignment as shown in the attached image...

Code:
global proc tglCurveVis()
{
	string $sCurves[] = `ls -typ nurbsCurve`;
	string $sCurve;
	global int $iCurveVis;

	for($sCurve in $sCurves)
		if($iCurveVis)
			setAttr ($sCurve + ".visibility") 0;
		else
			setAttr ($sCurve + ".visibility") 1;

	$iCurveVis = !$iCurveVis;
}
