[files][attributes] Making a file hidden...

Okay, I *used* to know how to do this, but I can't manage to find any help on it for some reason.. How does Rebol make files Hidden/Read-Only/Archived/whatever else?

I believe what you are looking for is Set-Modes... http://rebol.com/docs/words/wset-modes.html HTH! ~~Ammon ;~>

YAY, Thanks! Heh, I was using Set-modes wrong or something... No wonder I couldn't figure it out >.<
