Description Toby Dickenson 2004-09-30 22:04:13 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Konqueror has an option to Show or Hide Hidden Files. Im guessing that this affects dot files. I often find I have files that I would like konqueror to treat as hidden files to avoid clutter, but which do not have names that start with a dot.

Two common cases for me are:
1. backup files named filename~ 
2. python bytecode files named module.pyc

One obvious approach is to have some indication in the file type .desktop file that it should be classed as hidden.
