This is true but there are some programs that can identify these files.  I
know that Transmit is one of them, and I'm pretty sure that BBEdit is
another.  If someone could verify this then that would be great, otherwise
it's just me.

Though I would recomend using this method over the the previous that I
mentioned.  This one is a lot safer.
