Sure, it's emacs. You can use `dired-omit-mode' which in in
dired-x.el. Here's my setup:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'dired-x)
(setq dired-omit-files
(rx (or (seq bol (? ".") "#") ;; emacs autosave files
(seq bol "." (not (any "."))) ;; dot-files
(seq "~" eol) ;; backup-files
(seq bol "CVS" eol) ;; CVS dirs
)))
(setq dired-omit-extensions
(append dired-latex-unclean-extensions
dired-bibtex-unclean-extensions
dired-texinfo-unclean-extensions))
(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook (lambda () (dired-omit-mode 1)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
With `M-o' you cat toggle the mode.
Hope that helps,
Tassilo
