There are reasons for these differences:
- On Unix, but not on Windows, file and directory names starting in a
dot are "invisible". Most configuration files (under $HOME) are of this
kind. If you want to make something hidden under Windows, use e.g.
attrib +H .\vimfiles
- On MS-DOS, names should not begin with a dot. I'm not sure they're
acceptable on 8.3 systems even if the part after the dot consists only
of 3 letters.
Best regards,
Tony.
