A while ago someone posted a method for creating a hidden file in DOs
without setting the DOS Hidden attribute.  It had something to do with
using a wierd character for the file name.  Please respond via E-mail since
the whole world probably isn't interested in this.  I'll post a summary.

Thanks,
Neil
