Betreff: How to rsync and exclude hidden files?

Thanks to the always excellent help and advice from my plug friends,
I've been able to use 'rsync' to copy files between my Linux boxes,
and it has been a tremendous help.

However, from studying the man page, I can't figure out what the
syntax should be to exclude hidden files. When I use this:

rsync -avH --progress /home/joe/ joe@192.168.0.73:/home/joe/

It copied all the hidden files and kind of messed up my laptop.

How can I modify that command to exclude hidden files?
