Hi, I looked a bit closer at find-lisp.el from GNU Emacs and found that GNU Emacs file-attributes has an optional parameter id-format. The user id and group id can be returned as their string representation instead of as integers. It seems like it is used to some small extent in GNU Emacs so it might show up in other packages as well. Any views on adding this optional argument to our version of file-attributes for compatibility? Yours -- %% Mats _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
