Indeed. Sounds useful to see sizes and timestamps sometimes when editing names. ________________________________ Från: Michael Heerdegen Skickat: den 29 mars 2021 02:31 Till: arthur miller Kopia: emacs-devel@gnu.org; emacs-devel@gnu.org Ämne: Re: Sv: [PATCH] Lazy wdired preprocessing arthur miller writes: > > Yes, that's Bug#45127. > > It would be easy to hack that check to check for dired or wdired mode > too. I am not sure how beneficial it would be though. Honestly I > think editing permissions is just a show off :-). It's not about changing the permissions: most of the time I have `dired-hide-details-mode' initially off (i.e. details shown) in normal dired because of other useful information the listing shows (times, number of hardlinks). Then I switch to wdired to change file names and see that I rather wanted to hide details because some file names are long and the end is out of view, but I have already made some changes. Instead of aborting wdired, turn `dired-hide-details-mode' on, switch to wdired again and restart editing I would rather just toggle details from within wdired. Michael.
