- For reasons not entirely clear, I've stumbled across some files that are
- invisible, and shouldn't be (no, not system files, the ones I've found were
- GIFs, etc, that got munged somehow during FTP).
-
- Anyway, I've been deleting the ones I find by making them visible with
- ResEdit. Only problem is, I'm not sure what other invisible files are still
- out there now.
-
- How can I scan my hard disk for invisible files, either with the Apple OS
- itself (I'm 7.0.1), or with some FTPable utility?
-
- Many thanks.
