you remember that crap with files being hidden in osx because you used the . prefix to hide them on unix?
well after i made the suggestion of that other program that makes hidden files visible in finder, transmit (a pretty common ftp program) added the ability to view hidden files (view -> show invisible files), making it easier to upload the filebrowser in osx.
so, yeah, maybe you can edit the filebrowser documentation to note that, rather than suggesting downloading some weirdo app and all.
