How to skip dot files on drive crawl

I have been trying to add stuff to the regex-urlfileter.txt file to skip file
that start with a period
such as .settings or .svn when doing a local drive crawl.  However I have
been unsuccessful.
Everything I try skips everything.  Any suggestions??

Re: How to skip dot files on drive crawl

In your regex-urlfilter.txt, can you try this:

# skip URLs containing certain characters as probable queries, etc.
-[.?*!@=#%^&()+={}?;+]

Notice that I included the period "." as the first character.
