Wish there was a command to 'move' my dired session to the real pwd, whatever that may be, (and back again, if I want too)." Assume the user doesn't want to do C-x C-v /usr/share/doc/analog/, and instead wants emacs to figure it out for him, and not disturb his marks. Hmmm, the above seems rather "commands for the rich for use on the yacht" so never mind. -- http://jidanni.org/ Taiwan(04)25854780
