Hiding linux "hidden" files/dirs (starting with do

Post by *Martin Trcka »

In Linux it's usual that files (and directories) starting with '.' (dot) are hidden. Because my Linux partition is visible in Windows I would like to achieve the same effect also in Total Commander.

I could set Show->Custom to something like

Code: Select all

^[^\.].*
(regexp), but this applies only to files, not directories. Is there any way how to hide also directories?

Not with regex, sorry.

New option: mask applies also to dirs

So I would like to suggest adding a new option: apply mask (filter) also to directories. This should be easy to implement.
