Re: [Bug-apl] Limit what )LIB shows

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi Blake,

In MS windows, file extensions are everything (so important that they
have spent extra efforts to hide them for the dumb user).

In Linux they are more like a convention but not a must. GNU APL searches
first for a file with the name provided by the user and only looks for 
.xml or
.apl files if no file with the name given originally is present.

Therefore files Editor.apl~ and gg can be )LOADed and )COPYd and are
therefore shown. I might hide files starting with '.' (current only 
directories
./ and ../ are hidden) but I am not sure. They can be useful at times.
