On the one hand, we have text saying that image-dired creates thumbnails in the background: -----8<-----8<----- *** 'image-dired-show-all-from-dir-max-files' has been increased to 500. This option controls asking for confirmation when starting Image-Dired in a directory with many files. However, Image-Dired creates thumbnails in the background these days, so this is not as important as it used to be, back when entering a large directory could lock up Emacs for tens of seconds. In addition, you can now customize this option to nil to disable this confirmation completely. ----->8----->8----- On the other hand, we have text that seems to say that background processing does not happen: -----8<-----8<----- *** Some commands and user options are now obsolete. Since Image-Dired no longer converts images in the background before displaying them, some commands and user options that are no longer needed are now obsolete: 'image-dired-cmd-create-temp-image-options', 'image-dired-cmd-create-temp-image-program', 'image-dired-display-current-image-full', 'image-dired-display-current-image-sized', 'image-dired-display-window-height-correction', 'image-dired-display-window-width-correction', 'image-dired-temp-image-file'. ----->8----->8----- Is this just a matter of confusing wording, or is one of these text excerpts flat-out wrong? (I did go to savannah just now to see if the latest etc/NEWS has different text, and it does, but the apparent conflict remains.) mike
