Features are: marking of files for later commands (nearly all dired commands work on lists of marked files), shell commands on files, tree dired (ls -lR output and insertion of subdirectories in situ), diffing files, sorting on name or date, copy/move into directories, spaces in filenames allowed, and many little enhancements/fixes. It also works much better with ange-ftp. I'm running SunOS 4.1 most of the time myself, and would like to have beta testers for SysV, Ultrix, HP-UX,... and perhaps VMS. You should use Emacs and Dired heavily and be willing to report bugs, comments, suggestions to me: Sebastian Kremer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sebastian Kremer Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Cologne, F.
