58 "Switches passed to `ls' for Dired. MUST contain the `l' option.
59 May contain all other options that don't contradict `-l';
60 may contain even `F', `b', `i' and `s'. See also the variable
61 `dired-ls-F-marks-symlinks' concerning the `F' switch.
62 Options that include embedded whitespace must be quoted
64 `combine-and-quote-strings' to produce the correct quoting of
65 each option.
66 On systems such as MS-DOS and MS-Windows, which use `ls' emulation in Lisp,
67 some of the `ls' switches are not supported; see the doc string of
68 `insert-directory' in `ls-lisp.el' for more details."
73 "If non-nil, switches passed to `ls' for inserting subdirectories.
74 If nil, `dired-listing-switches' is used."
84 "Name of chown command (usually `chown')."
90 The special value of `unspecified' means to check explicitly, and
91 save the result in this variable. This is performed the first
92 time `dired-insert-directory' is called.
94 Note that if you set this option to nil, either through choice or
97 spaces. You might want to install ls from GNU Coreutils, which does
98 support this option. Alternatively, you might want to use Emacs's
100 (setq ls-lisp-use-insert-directory-program nil)
103 Note that `ls-lisp' does not support as many options as GNU ls, though.
104 For more details, see Info node `(emacs)ls in Lisp'."
111 "Name of chmod command (usually `chmod')."
116 "Name of touch command (usually `touch')."
121 "Informs Dired about how `ls -lF' marks symbolic links.
122 Set this to t if `ls' (or whatever program is specified by
123 `insert-directory-program') with `-lF' marks the symbolic link
124 itself with a trailing @ (usually the case under Ultrix).
126 Example: if `ln -s foo bar; ls -F bar' gives `bar -> foo', set it to
127 nil (the default), if it gives `bar@ -> foo', set it to t.
129 Dired checks if there is really a @ appended. Thus, if you have a
130 marking `ls' program on one host and a non-marking on another host, and
131 don't care about symbolic links which really end in a @, you can
132 always set this variable to t."

150 are afterward marked with that character.

152 `dired-do-rename-regexp'. See `wdired-keep-marker-rename'
153 if you want to do the same for files renamed in WDired mode."
159 "Controls marking of copied files.
160 If t, copied files are marked if and as the corresponding original files were.
161 If a character, copied files are unconditionally marked with that character."

183 "If non-nil, Dired tries to guess a default target directory.
184 This means: if there is a Dired buffer displayed in the next

251 "Non-nil means `dired-hide-details-mode' hides symbolic link targets."
257 "Non-nil means `dired-hide-details-mode' hides all but header and file lines."
263 "Non-nil means revert buffers visiting files before searching them.
264 By default, commands like `dired-mark-files-containing-regexp' will
265 search any buffers visiting the marked files without reverting them,
266 even if they were changed on disk. When this option is non-nil, such
267 buffers are always reverted in a temporary buffer before searching
268 them: the search is performed on the temporary buffer, the original
