How do I list hidden files in a unix directory?
-
In unix a file beginning with a dot or period is not normally listed when running the "ls" command
In order to list hidden files run the command "ls" in the following way:
[root@venus ~]# ls -la
The single dot . means current directory and the double dot .. means the parent, the directory above the one you are in.
