28 ;; This is based on Sebastian Kremer's excellent dired-x.el (Dired Extra),
29 ;; version 1.191, adapted for GNU Emacs. See the `dired-x' info pages.
31 ;; USAGE: In your ~/.emacs,
33 ;; (add-hook 'dired-load-hook
36 ;; ;; Set global variables here. For example:
37 ;; ;; (setq dired-guess-shell-gnutar "gtar")
39 ;; (add-hook 'dired-mode-hook
41 ;; ;; Set buffer-local variables here. For example:
42 ;; ;; (dired-omit-mode 1)
45 ;; At load time dired-x.el will install itself, redefine some functions, and
46 ;; bind some dired keys.
48 ;; User customization: M-x customize-group RET dired-x RET.
50 ;; When loaded this code redefines the following functions of GNU Emacs:
51 ;; From dired.el: dired-clean-up-after-deletion, dired-find-buffer-nocreate.
52 ;; From dired-aux.el: dired-read-shell-command.
54 ;; *Please* see the `dired-x' info pages for more details.
61 ;; This is a no-op if dired-x is being loaded via `dired-load-hook',
62 ;; but maybe not if a dired-x function is being autoloaded.
65 ;; We will redefine some functions and also need some macros.
