Subject: dired "!" hints baffled by multiple sources of same answer
Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2003 09:39:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87bs0x420f.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)

   ! on * [3 files]: [xloadimage]
it wisely suggests.
Now mark a fourth, a *.jpg
   ! on * [4 files]:
Ah ha... bzzzzt.  No helpful guess now. Pure *.gifs: xloadimage. Pure
*.jpgs: xloadimage.  Mixed: that does not compute.  Like take me back
to the repairshop.
