You hit C-x d RET. Why not have the cursor in that (fresh) dired be resting on the file you were just on, instead of stubbornly at the first file of the directory? Yes, this optional behavior would have a variable to turn it off for the old fuddies. Dan wants you to add this new feature to emacs. -- http://jidanni.org/ Taiwan(04)25854780
