Yeah, it seems that's how dired operates: it inserts the output from "ls -l" into the buffer and then does operations on that buffer to find the file name and suchlike. Hm. And the "ls -l" output contains not only the file names, it also contains the dates. I was going to suggest to have dired-find-file bind file-name-coding-system to the value used for reading the "ls -l" output, but that will break when the date and the file names use different encodings. -- file-error; Data: (Opening input file no such file or directory ~/.signature)
