New issue 198 by john.aar... at ...626...: ShowHidden property in OpenFile,  
SaveFile & SelectDir functions
http://code.google.com/p/gambas/issues/detail?id=198

It would be nice if the OpenFile, SaveFile & SelectDir functions would  
allow for the suppression of the display of hidden files/directories. The  
display of these hidden files/directories is a nuisance in that they occur  
before the non-hidden files & thus have to be scrolled through and are  
rarely selected by a user. This could be done in the same way as the  
FileChooser & DirChooser controls in the gb.form component i.e. by having a  
Boolean property of ShowHidden.

Version: 2.22 & 3.0
Operating system: Linux / FreeBSD
Distribution: Ubuntu 10.04
Architecture: x86
GUI component: GTK+ (as I haven't specified the GUI)
Desktop used: Gnome2
