You're not reading carefully enough. From the info page: | `hidden-files-shown' | Boolean option, the same as the command line option | `--hidden-files-shown'. *Note Command Line Options::. From /usr/share/doc/d-1.2.0/d.conf.example: | # 'hidden-files' - boolean option. Controls whether files with a leading | # period in their name are shown in the output. This defaults to 'false' in 'd'. | # Set to 'true' or 't' or '1' to turn on. | | #hidden-files = False Spot the difference? If you put "hidden-files = true" in ~/.d.conf it works as advertised. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
