29 ;;; Commentary:
31 ;; This is Sebastian Kremer's excellent dired-x.el (Dired Extra), version
32 ;; 1.191, hacked up for GNU Emacs 19. Redundant or conflicting material
33 ;; has been removed or renamed in order to work properly with dired of
34 ;; GNU Emacs 19. All suggestions or comments are most welcomed.
36 ;;
37 ;; Please, PLEASE, *PLEASE* see the info pages.
38 ;;
40 ;; BUGS: Type M-x dired-x-submit-report and a report will be generated.
42 ;; INSTALLATION: In your ~/.emacs,
44 ;; (add-hook 'dired-load-hook
45 ;; (function (lambda ()
46 ;; (load "dired-x")
47 ;; ;; Set global variables here. For example:
48 ;; ;; (setq dired-guess-shell-gnutar "gtar")
49 ;; )))
50 ;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
51 ;; (function (lambda ()
52 ;; ;; Set buffer-local variables here. For example:
53 ;; ;; (setq dired-omit-files-p t)
54 ;; )))
56 ;; At load time dired-x.el will install itself, redefine some functions, and
57 ;; bind some dired keys. *Please* see the info pages for more details.
59 ;; CAUTION: If you are using a version of GNU Emacs earlier than 19.20 than
60 ;; you may have to edit dired.el. The copy of dired.el in GNU Emacs versions
61 ;; earlier than 19.20 incorrectly had the call to run-hooks *before* the call
62 ;; to provide. In such a case, it is possible that byte-compiling and/or
63 ;; loading dired can cause an infinite loop. To prevent this, make sure the
64 ;; line of code
65 ;;
66 ;; (run-hooks 'dired-load-hook)
67 ;;
68 ;; is the *last* executable line in the file dired.el. That is, make sure it
69 ;; comes *after* the line
70 ;;
71 ;; (provide 'dired)
72 ;;
73 ;; *Please* see the info pages for more details.
75 ;; User defined variables:
77 ;; dired-bind-vm

100 ;; When loaded this code redefines the following functions of GNU Emacs
102 ;; Function Found in this file of GNU Emacs
103 ;; -------- -------------------------------
104 ;; dired-clean-up-after-deletion ../lisp/dired.el
105 ;; dired-find-buffer-nocreate ../lisp/dired.el
106 ;; dired-initial-position ../lisp/dired.el
108 ;; dired-add-entry ../lisp/dired-aux.el
109 ;; dired-read-shell-command ../lisp/dired-aux.el
111 ;; One drawback is that dired-x.el will load dired-aux.el as soon as dired is
112 ;; loaded. Thus, the advantage of separating out non-essential dired stuff
113 ;; into dired-aux.el and only loading when necessary will be lost. Please
114 ;; note also that some of the comments in dired.el and dired-aux.el are
115 ;; Kremer's that referred to the old dired-x.el. This now should be referring
116 ;; to this program. (This is also a good reason to call this dired-x.el
117 ;; instead of dired-x19.el.)
120 ;;; Code:
122 ;; LOAD.
124 ;; This is a no-op if dired-x is being loaded via `dired-load-hook'. It is
125 ;; here in case the user has autoloaded dired-x via the dired-jump key binding
126 ;; (instead of autoloading to dired as is suggested in the info-pages).
