Display of hidden files is controlled by the server's configuration. There
is no standard client-side command that allows a client to force them to
appear. The LIST and NLST commands basically just get passed through to the
underlying file system, so any parameters specified by the client are
affected by which file system is being used on the server. SOME servers,
more notably Unix-based servers, may support the '-a' or '-la' parameter to
display hidden files, but this is highly server-specific.
