Hello People.
I've just uploaded a new Dired package to the 'Pre-Releases' directory
on
ftp.xemacs.org.
The maintainer is looking for feedback, especially from Windows
users. Please take the time to grab this package, do some testing
(including Dired's interaction with EFS), and report the results back
to Michael Sperber <sperber(a)informatik.uni-tuebingen.de>.
Michael wants to hear about, not only the bad news, but also the good.
Getting The New Dired:
=====================
1) Tools -> Packages -> Add Download Site -> Pre-Releases
2) Tools -> Packages -> List and Install
3) select dired (mouse-2 or RET)
4) Packages -> Install/Remove Selected
5) Re-Start XEmacs.
If that method gives you problems (it may do for Windows users),
simply download:
<
ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages/dired-1.10-pkg...
and unpack it to <emacs-roots>/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/
Don't forget that most open source developers do not have R & D
departments with huge budgets. Having good software is worth spending
a couple of minutes to send an email to the maintainers telling of
success/failure. And obviously, the more details you can give the
better.
Thanks very much to you all for you help with this.
