Show/hide hidden files

[acn128]

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!

[antonmedv]

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?

[antonmedv]

Looks like.

[amagnolo]

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

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

[matterpale]

+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 ".".
