A forum user encountered the same problem in SQLiteSpy and Metapad.

I tested SQLiteSpy and Wine's notepad. It is possible to see .dot
files/directories, but the way to do it is not obvious:

Select File->Open
In the "Look in" dropdown box select "My Computer"
Select the (Z:) drive
Browse to wherever; you should be able to see the .dot files/directories.

The key is the second step; if you select / instead of My Computer from the
dropdown list, .dot files/directories won't be displayed. 

Wine's explorer also has the same problem: navigating through / does not show
the hidden files, but going through My Computer does.
