From ls-lisp.el: ;; This file redefines the function `insert-directory' to implement it ;; directly from Emacs lisp, without running ls in a subprocess. It ;; is useful if you cannot afford to fork Emacs on a real memory UNIX, ;; under VMS or other non-UNIX platforms if you don't have the ls ;; program, or if you want a different format from what ls offers. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Perhaps that's what Eugene wants. Setting those 2 variables (ls-lisp-dirs-first and ls-lisp-verbosity) via custom-set-variables doesn't actually cause ls-lisp to be loaded, so maybe he just needs to explicitly load it. -- Kevin Rodgers
