Subject: Delete hidden files probelm

/*
I use the following task to delete hidden files.

 <delete file=".hidden.txt"/>

However, there are many files needed to be removed. If I use

 <delete file=".*.txt"/>

It won't delete hidden files ( but <delete file="*.txt"/> works for
removing
file ext with txt )

What is the correct syntax to remove hidden files using ant tasks?
*/

if you need to delete in root folder only =

<delete>
<fileset dir="Y:/test" includes=".* *.txt">
</fileset>

if you need recursive deletion =

<delete>
<fileset dir="Y:/test" includes="**/.* **/*.txt">
</fileset>
