Subject: Re: Find file in Dired - let M-n yank name at point?
Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2006 23:09:45 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1GFMe9-0003qX-B9@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

What about binding `C-x C-f', `C-x 4 f', `C-x C-v', and so on,
in Dired, to Dired-specific commands that let you use `M-n' to
yank (append) `dired-get-file-for-visit' onto the directory
name that is the `default-filename' arg for `read-file-name'?
It is a good feature, but I would rather implement it in a cleaner
way, with a hook that tells file name reading how to set up the
value for M-n.
