emacs -Q
 
C-h r
 
i dired RET
 
The Info node (`Dired Enter') says this:
 
"If you use a numeric prefix argument with the `dired' command, you can
specify the `ls' switches with the minibuffer before you enter the
directory specification."
 
The word "numeric" should be removed: any prefix arg has this effect.
Oddly enough, this doc bug is at least as old as Emacs  20.
 

In GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
 of 2010-08-30 on 3249CTO
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600
