In Today's GNU Emacs CVS, Wed, 2008 Oct 15 10:03 UTC GNU Emacs 23.0.60.103 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.) C-M-d (translated from ) runs the command dired-tree-down, which is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in `dired-aux.el'. Perhaps the original poster meant , which is also in today's instance. See (info "(emacs) DEL Does Not Delete") This is the result of `describe-key' (`C-h k'): M-DEL (translated from ) runs the command dired-unmark-all-files, which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired.el'. -- Robert J.
