Hi all,

When I su to root or login as root from console. ls shows
hidden files, too. No matter I use "ls -a" or "ls" result
is same:

[root@escalade ~]ls

.mozilla                XF86Config
[root@escalade ~]

Is there a way to change this behaviour? I do not wish to
see hidden files as root. When I need I could always use ls
-a.

I could not find a solution in ~/.csh file and
/etc/csh.cshrc.
