How to hide certain dotfiles like .gitignore .DS_Store etc. but not others

[GeordyJ]

I usually have 'set hidden' in my lfrc as I frequently edit dot files. However, I do not want to see files like .DS_Store and files that start with ._

Thanks

Instead of using set hidden to forcefully show hidden files, you can configure the hiddenfiles option to define what should be considered as a hidden file.

The following will treat .DS_Store and files starting with ._ as hidden:

set hidden false  # this is the default already

set hiddenfiles '.DS_Store:._*'
