Re: Why I attempted to port dired/VC from emacs

Most of it tends to be in the new Dired, or at least is easy to
replicate. I'd be happy to help with that.
Sure, sort of. Have you used vc-dired under emacs? What it does is
show you just the modified files. And you can do various things with them,
check-in, diff, revert, etc. But, the xemacs vc-dired doesn't do that.
First of all, it doesn't work at all; see issue 491. But, second, I
have hacked around enough to get it working with some side-effects, but it
just behaves differently. It shows all files rather than just those
that were
modified. And, it doesn't recognize the commands. I don't know if this
really helps you as you may find better hacks to get it going. But,
I'll be happy
to test any patches. Thanks!
