Answer / shan, nmc
Yes. We have a command for that as well. Use below command
to make the normal file.
$mv .aaa bbb.txt
Here, aaa is hidden file name and bbb.txt is our new file
name. One thing is that we must remember the hidden file
name, then only we will be able to convert into normal file.
Hope you are clear.
Thx
