To create a file with an HFS name or a file in an HFS directory, you can use the BUILD command. For example,

   :BUILD ./.a

or

   :BUILD .a

Note that any file moved into an HFS directory is assigned an ACD automatically if it doesn't already have one.

Most often, files using HFS syntax are created and managed by HFS-aware applications using programmatic interfaces.
