And for the other answer --- YES you can create filenames beginning with dot, the only trick (in all Windows file open/save dialog boxes) is to QUOTE the filename (e.g. ".htaccess" instead of .htaccess). This has the added benefit of not receiving .txt filename extensions as well, from applications such as notepad.
