This doesn't work, but the code from my test script does. I
inserted it after the Pd-Extended font hacks, around line 42.
<code>
# begin hack to hide hidden files/folder in tk browser on unix
----------
if {$pd_nt == 0} {
# load the dialog once, otherwise setting the vars will not work
catch {tk_getOpenFile -with-invalid-argument}
# change the environment variables
namespace eval ::tk::dialog::file {
variable showHiddenBtn 1
variable showHiddenVar 0
}
}
# end hidden files/folder hack ------------------
</code>
Now open/save/saveas dialogs hide hidden files and show the toggle
button. Awesome! Ok, I assume I might as well open a dev account
somewhere are add this as a patch?
Someone else try this in Linux.

You should be able to set that variable in pd.tk and have it work
without modifying the other file. Try just adding
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 1
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 0
Somewhere near the top of the pd.tk.

IOhannes, you found the magic bullet (or forum post, that is)!
Awesome, I can confirm this works in a little test script and
screenshot. It's a button to toggle
hidden file display as expected.

according to http://www.groupsrv.com/computers/about266840.html
it is
acutally already built into tk-8.4 but not exposed!
