Subject: what was the name of that file I just renamed?

Message-ID: <87k7h71kmo.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
What was the name of that file I just renamed with R in dired? It's
not in any minibuffer history list. It's not in view-lossage. Not in
*Messages*. For all I know it's in my mom's drawers.
If this were bash a mere ^P would see what the heck its old name was.
But with emacs, it's like in the sheredder, ma'am. Great. Now what,
directory bit dump?
Suggested solution: one would expect to pull back a line of lisp with
C-x ESC ESC, it would look like (dired-do-rename "old" "new")... ok
not that line but something similar.
