Amendment to the above. I mean I was unable to find anything to specifically show .htaccess. But was able to find those two topics regarding showing all hidden files and folders.

Cheers,

i agree, and could not find anything for the moment. I’m sure you know about these but this is what I found on the topic :

http://www.smartsoft.com/products/dotfiles/dotfiles.html

I’ve gone for the first option for the minute. I’m not unhappy with a whole lot of hidden files being displayed, I know which ones I would like to edit and which ones I do not.

HTH,
Mikee

Fetch has been around for a decade at least and here’s what I do with Fetch:

Go to your directory, right click on on the .htaccess file, right click and select “Duplicate”. Select the duplicate you just made and select “Rename”. Rename the file “htaccess” (drop the dot). While htaccess still selected hit the “Get” button below, the file appears on your desktop. Rename the file by adding .txt.

I open it with Adobe GoLiveCS2 or any program that saves in Unix format (LF only).

I edit the file, close it, upload it, rename it “.htaccess” on the server with Fetch, DONE.
