In Linux, list only hidden files, and only the file name (no owner, perms, etc)

$ ls -1d1 .!(|.)

This was useful in the context of creating an exclude list for some rsync jobs, where I only wanted to capture things like .bashrc and .vimrc, but didn't care bout a lot of the other profile config in the backup.
