Assuming you use ls(1) to display your files the command would be
``ls -a'' as explained in the the manual page.

Depending on your shell you can create an alias for the ls command
which includes the -a option every time.

For sh you can edit $HOME/.profile to include a line as
alias ls="ls -a"

For csh you can edit $HOME/.cshrc to include a line as
alias ls "ls -l"
