While Thunar is fine at hiding files which begin with a full stop, it does not parse the .hidden file in folders and hide any files and folders listed within.
This is supported by Konqueror, Nautilus, and is a handy feature. One example of use is here: https:/ /blueprints. launchpad. net/ubuntu/ +spec/hide- filesystem- structure/
