Re: [Web-ftp] How can hide the hidden files on Unix/Linux

[Anthony R. J. B. <an...@su...>]

  Well... that is kind of a Net::FTP thing.. not sure if you CAN
do it there... where I KNOW you can clear them is in webftp/WebFTPPages.pm

There is a line that looks like

       if($fn) {

in the getDirectory subroutine (should be the only place it is in that file.
you can change that to

       if($fn && $fn =~ /^\./) {

What this does is skip any file or directory starting with a .
which is how unix denotes hidden directories.

When I graduate in June I think I will actually be able to do a major
overhaul, I will have to add this as an option.
