Find all files in the current directory only excluding hidden directories and files.
For the below command, though it's not deleting hidden files.. it is traversing through the hidden directories and listing normal which should be avoided.

cp
CP(1) General Commands Manual CP(1)NAME
cp, cpdir - file copy
SYNOPSIS
cp [-pifsmrRvx] file1 file2
cp [-pifsrRvx] file ... directory
cpdir [-ifvx] file1 file2
OPTIONS -p Preserve full mode, uid, gid and times
-i Ask before removing existing file
-f Forced remove existing file
-s Make similar, copy some attributes
-m Merge trees, disable the into-a-directory trick
-r Copy directory trees with link structure, etc. intact
-R Copy directory trees and treat special files as ordinary
-v Display what cp is doing
-x Do not cross device boundaries
EXAMPLES
cp oldfile newfile # Copy oldfile to newfile
cp -R dir1 dir2 # Copy a directory tree
DESCRIPTION
Cp copies one file to another, or copies one or more files to a directory. Special files are normally opened and read, unless -r is used.
-r also copies the link structure, something -R doesn't care about. The -s option differs from -p that it only copies the times if the
target file already exists. A normal copy only copies the mode of the file, with the file creation mask applied. Set-uid bits are cleared
if the owner cannot be set. (The -s flag does not patronize you by clearing bits. Alas -s and -r are nonstandard.)
Cpdir is a convenient synonym for cp -psmr to make a precise copy of a directory tree.
