Here's what RMS wrote to me regarding my patch:
| This change would not achieve its aim. view-file on a Dired buffer
| does nothing except switch-to-buffer, because Dired mode is a special
| mode:
|
| (interactive "fView file: ")
| (unless (file-exists-p file) (error "%s does not exist" file))
| (let ((had-a-buf (get-file-buffer file))
| (buffer (find-file-noselect file)))
| (if (eq (with-current-buffer buffer
| (get major-mode 'mode-class))
| 'special)
| (progn
| (switch-to-buffer buffer)
| (message "Not using View mode because the major mode is special"))
|
| This recognizes that using view-mode on a directory listing is not
| very useful. The code should do what it does now.
