28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;;; This is Sebastian Kremer's excellent dired-x.el (Dired Extra), version
31 ;;; 1.191, hacked up for GNU Emacs 19. Redundant or conflicting material
32 ;;; has been removed or renamed in order to work properly with dired of
33 ;;; GNU Emacs 19. All suggestions or comments are most welcomed.
34 ;;;
35 ;;; *Please* see the info pages.
37 ;;; BUGS: Type M-x dired-x-submit-report and a report will be generated.
39 ;;; INSTALLATION: In your ~/.emacs,
40 ;;;

45 ;;; ;; (setq dired-guess-shell-gnutar "gtar")
46 ;;; ;; (setq dired-omit-files-p t)
47 ;;; )))
48 ;;;
49 ;;; At load time dired-x.el will install itself, redefine some functions, and
50 ;;; bind some dired keys. *Please* see the info pages for more details.

75 ;;; When loaded this code redefines the following functions of GNU Emacs
76 ;;;
77 ;;; Function Found in this file of GNU Emacs
78 ;;; -------- -------------------------------
79 ;;; dired-clean-up-after-deletion ../lisp/dired.el
80 ;;; dired-find-buffer-nocreate ../lisp/dired.el
81 ;;; dired-initial-position ../lisp/dired.el
82 ;;; dired-up-directory ../lisp/dired.el
83 ;;;
84 ;;; dired-add-entry ../lisp/dired-aux.el
85 ;;; dired-read-shell-command ../lisp/dired-aux.el
86 ;;;
87 ;;; One drawback is that dired-x.el will load dired-aux.el as soon as dired is
88 ;;; loaded. Thus, the advantage of separating out non-essential dired stuff
89 ;;; into dired-aux.el and only loading when necessary will be lost. Please
90 ;;; note also that some of the comments in dired.el and dired-aux.el are
91 ;;; Kremer's that referred to the old dired-x.el. This now should be referring
92 ;;; to this program. (This is also a good reason to call this dired-x.el
93 ;;; instead of dired-x19.el.)
96 ;;;; Code:
98 ;;; LOAD.
100 ;;; This is a no-op if dired-x is being loaded via `dired-load-hook'. It is
101 ;;; here in case the user has autoloaded dired-x via the dired-jump key binding
102 ;;; (instead of autoloading to dired as is suggested in the info-pages).
104 ;;; WARNING: The copy of dired.el in GNU Emacs versions earlier than 19.20 had
105 ;;; the `provide' *after* the `run-hooks'. In such a case, loading dired below
106 ;;; will cause an infinite loop. To prevent this we test the value of the GNU
107 ;;; Emacs major version number before requiring dired.
