I also noted this unfortunate limitation. For the example of hidden
files, file.du would fail on hidden dirs contained in a non-hidden one
in the active pane. Say,
file.du !.*
would fail to spot
./test/.hidden/file.txt
Do you think there would be a workaround and make this work
recursively? Although this would (logically) apply only to the
specific case of hidden files.

It is necessary to prepend '!' even when configuring a toolbar item,
although I cannot manage to configure a toolbar item that behaves
properly. Is there a different way to initiate the plug-in? Perhaps a
<shft>+file.du interface, similar to that of Copy names?
Otherwise, when the syntax is correct, the plug-in seems to work fine.
