    Hi,

    ever since moving to OSX, I've been unable to see hidden files (i.e. filenames beginning with period) in Fetch, regardless of the setting of "omit file names beginning with period" preference. I'm now using Fetch 4.0.3 on OS 10.3.8, but have had the same problem with 4.0.1 on 10.2.

    Any ideas?

    Have you tried choosing "Send LIST -al to UNIX Servers" from the Obscure Options menu in the Misc. section of Preferences? Some servers require a non-standard command to show hidden files.

    Thanks,

    Thanks very much! Hadn't noticed that option (kicks self upside head). Has solved the problem.

    Thanks again,
