[Catalyst] Malformed class Name & Hidden files

[Rajeev Cyrus]

Greetings.

I am trying to get started with catalyst and am running into slightly  
annoying problem.

I am working though Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial and when it comes time  
to start the web-server I get this error:

Malformed class Name MyApp::Model::._MyAppDB at /usr/local/perl5.8.3/ 
lib/site_perl/5.8.3/Catalyst.pm line 1875
Compilation failed in require at script/myapp_server.pl line 53.

I have traced this down to the fact that my text editor (TextMate)  
likes to leave hidden files around with similar names as those being  
edited. For example the above error says something about ._MyAppDB  
where this a file named MyApp/lib/MyAppDB.pm AND a file MyApp/ 
lib._MyAppDB.pm

If i delete the ._* file the server will launch and everything works  
fine.

My question is:
Is there a way I can tell the scripts to ignore hidden files?

thanks in advance
