I am glad to confirm that the latest XEmacs ediff package works fine with `ediff-after-session-group-setup-hook' (buffer: .emacs-i586-pc-win32, mode: Emacs-Lisp) Customizable user variable: value: see below *Hooks run just after a meta-buffer controlling a session group, such as ediff-directories, is run. value: ((lambda nil (ediff-meta-mark-equal-files ?h) (ediff-hide-marked-sessions nil))) Another thing: I wish I could use = e runs the command dired-ediff on two directories to run `ediff-directories' automatically. I realize this particular thing is a dired/ediff integration issue. Pushing my point farther, wouldn't it be useful for ediff to simplify its interface to invoke `ediff-files' or `ediff-directories' depending on the arguments provided? Is this perhaps even possible already and I just missed this? How about: ediff-??? DIR1 FILE2 runs (ediff-files DIR1/FILE2 FILE2) ediff-??? DIR1 DIR2 runs (ediff-directories DIR1 DIR2) ediff-??? FILE1 DIR2 runs (ediff-files FILE1 DIR2/FILE1) Is this too DWIMy for you? Best regards, Adrian MK> --michael -- Adrian Aichner mailto:adrian＠xemacs.org http://www.xemacs.org/
