filter .DS_Store or others from maiden menus

[okyeron]

I started using Transmit today (from my Mac) to sftp to norns and now I'm seeing the invisible files ".DS_Store" and "._.DS_Store" in my maiden menu listings. (also using SAMBA, so I'm not sure which one is generating those DS_Store files)

I suppose these invisible files just need to be filtered out of the list?

seconded. Not really an important functionality but it ruins a bit Maiden's elegance.

this shouldn’t be too bad to add. will look into it

It could make sense to just filter out all dotfiles. I volunteer to do this, if that's what we want to do.

Wanted to ping this topic again -
Noticed today that the .git directory shows up in subdirectories

Also - what to do about readme.md files? Probably leave them visible?

Is there no way to exclude what you're sending to norns in the tool you're using?

[tehn]

we just need to filter normal dot files I believe @ngwese is on it

No chance someone wants to store something in a .dot dir and wants to edit that?

This ticket should be addressed by this change once it is merged.

UPDATE: re editing files in dot directories. I’m not to worried about that - folks placing stuff in dot directories or naming files with a dot probably know what they are doing and can edit those files via a different mechanism than maiden. That said I should probably add validation to prevent people from renaming files starting with a ‘.’
