I have right now altered them in my own copy of dired.el. The reason is that if I just put them in the .emacs, they get overwritten when dired.el get loaded later. Is there a way of catching the loading of dired, and then executing these function definitions so that I do not have to make a copy of dired.el? (without, of couse loading dired first and then executing these functions in the .emacs (why load it if I wont use it?)) Thanks Aamod Sane -- sane@cs.uiuc.edu == / \ ----- == * \_/ -|||- ==
