What does 'Warning: Symbol "faHidden" is not portable' mean exactly? I’m
using it with FindFirst and FindNext, I'm just wondering if there is a
better way of getting directory information that includes hidden and excludes
hidden files in a better way that would not generate this warning. The Fact
that there is a warning about it indicates to me that there must be a better
way.
what OS? some OSes do not have hidden attribute like DOS and winwhatever... for
example, on most *nix, they use dot files which are generally specifically not
listed unless special steps are taken to show them... a "dot file" is one that
the filename starts with a dot...
eg: .dirindex
