ok something you guys might find useful..how to hide files...

make a folder with a name starting from dot in MyDocs. eg .folder

then use the path file:///home/user/MyDocs/.folder to access the contents of this folder..the files here are not visible in any of the music n video players, but when u open them from browser they work just fine :)


Nice one, top tip

Open up the X Terminal, and type the following:

Code:

apt-get moo
The result should speak for itself.
(No root access is needed.)

Won't this install the moo app? Or am I wrong? If I'm right, the post may be a bit misleading!

It's such a little harmless thing. If I foretold you, where would the surprise be?
