Hello, I have just subscribed to this list, so this may have been discussed before. I was looking at a way to change the default behaviour of the fileselection widget to show all files, including 'dotfiles' and it seems to me there is no way to do this currently. I have patched my own version of GTK to include an extra function: gtk_file_selection_show_dotfiles(GtkFileSelection filesel, gboolean dotfiles) I implemented this by adding a global gboolean dot_or_not and addapting the FNMATCH_FLAGS definition, #define FNMATCH_FLAGS(dot_or_not) ( dot_or_not ? FNM_PATHNAME : (FNM_PATHNAME | FNM_PERIOD) ) adding the boolean gboolean dot_or_not=FALSE; and changing every occurance of FNMATCH_FLAGS to FNMATCH_FLAGS(dot_or_not). With this very simple change it was trivial to implement the show dotfiles function to just change the value of dot_or_not. Might this be a useful addition to the gtk fileselection API ?
