You should specify if you mean at the command line or in knoqueror 
(which you mentioned in another post).  From the command line use ls -a 
or la in the default csh install.  In konqueror use view->show hidden files.

You cannot "unhide" a hidden dot-file without renaming it.  Renaming it 
will make it impossible for the programs that use the file to find it.

HTH,
Micah
