In Unix, .whatever files or directories are hidden one, that is won't be visible normally. To see them, just use e.g. the -a option to ls. If you use a GUI file browser, there is an option to make them visible. cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_file_and_hidden_directory#Unix_and_Unix-like_environments Frédéric
