hello,
In UNIX, just typing ls won't reveal the file, but adding the -a flag, as in ls -al, will reveal invisible files as well.
Unfortunately, the Finder won't let you save/rename a file with a period as the first character. It is easy, however, to jump into UNIX and use the mv (move) command to rename the file, like this:
mv SecretFile.pdf .SecretFile.pdf
hope it helps you
