  I had a look at lfs code, and it doesn't seem to report those attributes to lua side.

  Oh, lfs can be modded to report them I suppose

  you mean in gideros source? would be great if you could add it. most important would be to hide system files but i guess hidden files are also hidden for a good reason.
  thanks

  also lfs seems to have issues with non-standard (e.g. accented) characters.

  I will, and fix that accent issue too if possible. It must be an encoding/UTF-8 issue somehow.

  thanks,
  
  it's always strange to read release notes of other sdk's (recently defold and godot) where they get plethora of funding yet they keep adding features that are in gideros since a long time.

  @hgy29 , does this modified lfs.dll work with older gideros version (namely 2020.4 which i need to export to older macs)?

  I fixed both, and yes it should work with previous gideros versions. I added a flags property to les attributes table, it will be a string containing H for a hidden file and S for a system file, or both

  It is the archive flag, not sure what it means but MSDOS docs will tell.

  hey guys, surprise
  
  The gmedia plugin has some hidden features that already work for desktop (I think we need to write it for mobile but the c++ lua bindings are already existing, so only need to write the java function and the ios function).
  
  Enough talking here it is: ta da
  
  mediamanager:getFile("*.*", "c:/") -- extensions (here all), initial path
  
  It opens a windows explorer where you can select a file other than images and the files system are hidden too!!!!!!!
  
  The windows explorer looks way outdated though

  I am testing it and should update the wiki.
  PS: saveFile is also implemented but haven't tested it yet
