I'm very new to linux and I really don't know how to phrase this question in google in order to find out the answer. I want to attach a file that is found in /home/usrname/.opera yet when I go to browse there I am not able to see .* directories. ( I don't just have this problem in sylphleed but other situations as well so I'm guessing this is more of a linux question). The way I had to get around this is to copy the file from .opera to /home/usrname and from there I was able to select the file as an attachment. (I was wanting to send my bookmarks to my work e-mail address). Is there an easier way to send attachments from files that are found in directories that start with a '.' ?
Thanks,
If you use Kmail, there's an option under 'extras' in the attach file dialog that allows you to see and select hidden files. HTH Best Fergus -- Fergus Wilde Chetham's Library Long Millgate Manchester M3 1SB Tel: +44 161 834 7961 Fax: +44 161 839 5797 http://www.chethams.org.uk
