You should be able to set that variable in pd.tk and have it work
without modifying the other file. Try just adding
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 1
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 0
Somewhere near the top of the pd.tk.

Awesome, I can confirm this works in a little test script and
screenshot. It's a button to toggle hidden file display as expected.On Wed, 2008-04-02 at 10:55 +0200, IOhannes m zmoelnig wrote:

There are quite a few apps written with Tcl/Tk for GNU/Linux, so
I am
sure we are not the first to want this feature. I would be very surprised if another Tcl/Tk app hasn't solved this already.
according to http://www.groupsrv.com/computers/about266840.html it is acutally already built into tk-8.4 but not exposed!
quoting this article:
If you have Tcl/Tk 8.4.12, find the file "tkfbox.tcl" in your Tk installation. At line 777, you will see:
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 0 set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 1
Replace them by:
set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenBtn 1 set ::tk::dialog::file::showHiddenVar 0
And you're done...
