Is there any way to open a file with a leading . in the filename using just the regular File > Open... dialog?

Open dot-file via GUI "open file" dialog?

⌘-⇧-. (Command-shift-.) will toggle hidden file visibility in open dialogs.

Yeah, I found the answer while composing the question because different search terms occurred to me. Sorry to be a tease. – blahdiblah – 2011-06-06T22:00:15.007
Nah, it's fine. No worries :D – Wuffers – 2011-06-06T22:02:28.453
It not only displays "dot-files", but any hidden files (including those hidden with the
chflags hidden <filename>command). – Daniel Beck – 2011-06-07T04:33:39.137
