Is there any Mac utility out there that allows one to poke around

The terminal can help you here. Open terminal and change to the
directory you want to delete all .ds_store files from (including
subdirectories). One way to do this is to type "cd " and then drag the
folder from the finder. Type "return" and that will change the active
directory of the terminal.
Type this:
find ./ -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm -f {} \;
This should get rid of all the files. I use it all of the time.
Is there a way to tell the OS to never copy any files starting with "."
when copying to removable devices?
Or is the lack of such a critical feature part of Apple's "buy our
hardware or suffer" strategy?
