FFS issues with underscore filenames

Got two files that I'm trying to sync, called spelunky_save.bak and spelunky_save.sav.

With those filenames, FFS does not display them in the folder, and if I put them in a folder by themselves, it reports the folder having zero files in it.

If I remove the last letter from the names of the files (so they are both spelunky_sav, not spelunky_save), then it shows them but with a weird blank line between. More alterations along these lines, putting different things after the underscore, results in similar strange behaviour.

If I change one to spelunky_saved.bak then it shows up in the list as file number 3, with two other blank things above it. If I do it to both they show up in the list in rows 4 and 5, but the program still reports 2 files at the bottom of the window.

Putting other combinations of things after the underscore causes further weirdness:

I think you missed the fact that the overview dialog does not show files that are equal on both sides (see = filter button).

Oh man, I am an idiot, the empty rows obviously are showing files on the opposite side that aren't in the first one. It makes perfect sense.

Sorry! :)
