locked and hidden

[zoranb]

i have a pc dvd that has hidden and locked files, how can these be viewed on the mac?

You want to "see" the files on the DVD, or you want to actually open them with a certain program?

You can use the terminal with the "ls -la" command to view all files on a volume.

Isnt there a way to view them through the OS and not using unix commands etc.?

What do you mean "view?" Open the files in a specific application, or actually view the files (filenames, mod. dates, etc.) in the Finder?

In the prefs tab of Mac HelpMate, there's an option to show all hidden files in the Finder.

Enjoy!
