Scott,

I have a plugin for MacOSX users which will display all invisible files in a folder and you can also choose to make them visible. From there it's an easy step to remove them.

Plugin named: altFileMgr

Type in the MSG box:

go URL "http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altplugins/revAltFileMgr.rev";

best,

Chipp

For me, creating simple ZIP archives on Mac systems that contain a few files
is usually straightforward.  However, I often find that when the ZIP
archives starts to contain nested subfolders, I often wind up with invisible
.ds_store files that corrupt the archive when it comes time to decompress on
Windows systems.  The only recourse seems to be to move folders over to
Windows, delete any .ds_store files, and compress there.

Is there any Mac utility out there that allows one to poke around inside a
ZIP archive to delete these extraneous .ds_store files?  Or even better,
some way to tell Stuffit to ignore/delete these files in the first place?
