What settings do I have to make to show folder files that begins with a period in a session compare?

Examples ASCRIPT folder

Some ftp servers hide files with names that begin with a period.

The dot files should list if you go to the FTP section of Tools|Options and put -a in the List Options: box.

I second that.

Beyond Compare is a superb tool with even better support.

I just found this post which solved my problem where my linux FTP server was not showing "dot" files like my solaris server was.

You guys (& gals?) do an excellent job.
