If the dired buffer were not needed while asking the question, dired could temporarily display that list in the dired window itself and switch back to the dired buffer afterwards. But I never use dired. What about putting this in `pop-up-windows'? Possible values are: nil do not allow popping up windows 'this selected window 'below below selected window 'below-split split selected window vertically 'right right of selected window 'right-split split selected window horizontally 'bottom use window near bottom of frame 'bottom-split split window near bottom of frame t allow popping up windows If an application (like dired) sees that this variable is t (the default) it may ask to pop up the window wherever it's most suitable. Otherwise, it has to respect the value chosen by the user. Like (let ((pop-up-windows (if (eq pop-up-windows t) 'bottom-split pop-up-windows))) (display-buffer ...)) martin
