Show/hide hidden files

acn128 opened this issue · 7 comments

Hi,

would it be possible to add eg. the key binding " . " to toggle the visibility of 'hidden' files and directories (ie. filename start with '.')?

Thank you!

Sure.

When was this implemented? The key binding "." doesn't work for me, and it's not in the documentation... any chance it was lost?

Looks like.

can you reopen this issue or should I open a new feature request?

+1 for adding support for this -- happy to help test

+1, same

Actually, hiding hidden files should be the default behavior: they are hidden for a reason, and by definition showing them in a terminal navigator is a bug.
So the patch should be changed to show hidden files only when explicitly requested by pressing ".".
