Recursively list all hidden files and directories

The basic syntax is as follows:

find /dir/to/search/ -name ".*" -print

find /dir/to/search/ -name ".*" -ls

search only hidden files:

find /dir/to/search/ -type f -iname ".*" -ls

search only hidden directories:

find /dir/to/search/ -type d -iname ".*" -ls
find /dir/to/search -path '*/.*' -print
find /dir/to/search -path '*/.*' -ls

In this example, search $HOME for all hidden files and dirs:

find $HOME -name ".*" -ls
