I have some enhancements to Dired that I offer to Emacs
developers. They are in the attached file, dired+.el, which
is also here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/emacs/dired+.el. A
description is here (and some of it is repeated below):
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/DiredPlus.
Don't think of this as a standalone library to be added to
Emacs as is. Think of it as snippets of code, some of which
you might want to adapt or adopt.
I will not spend an inordinate amount of time discussing
each of the enhancements, possible changes to them, or
possible combinations of them. If someone finds one or more
of the enhancements useful and wants to add those, fine. If
not, fine. If you like some idea but you want to implement
it differently, fine - go for it. I won't spend time
recoding, repackaging, chopping up, or integrating any of
this. I won't propose patches.
If someone else wants to do any of that, fine. If not,
fine. If no one wants to look at the code, fine. Your time
is limited, and so is mine. I am willing to answer
clarification questions.
FWIW, I and some others have been using this code for almost
a decade. I think it is useful, but I won't try to convince
anyone of that.
----
For those who still have no Web access, I've attached a
screenshot, and I list here some of the enhancements:
* Changes some key bindings and menus.
* Adds some new commands.
* Adds a context-sensitive popup menu on `mouse-3'. The menu
differs, depending on whether or not a region is active.
* Provides more mouse utility - you can select a region,
then operate on its files. Alternative ways to select
(mark) multiple files:
. drag a region, then choose Mark in the popup menu
. click, then Shift-click, as in Windows Explorer
. Control-click, as in Windows Explorer (alternately marks
and unmarks the file)
* Provides fancy highlighting (customizable through user
variables).
. You can see immediately if a file has the wrong
permissions (e.g. writable or executable when it
shouldn't be).
. Less important files (defined by variable
dired-omit-extensions or completion-ignored-extensions)
are in a subdued face; other files stand out more. To
hide less important files altogether, use `M-o' (it's a
toggle).
About the highlighting -
* Different faces are used for:
. file extension
. file name
. directory name
. file size
. time and date
. file permissions: a different face for each kind of
permission (rwx-)
* File and directory names can contain spaces - the entire
name is highlighted.
* The entire line of a less important file is lowlighted.
* When a file is marked, the entire line is highlighted.
* Files that are marked and files that are flagged for
deletion have the mark/flag highlighted differently.
* The entire line is highlighted on mouse-over, regardless
of where on the line the mouse is. Click `mouse-2'
anywhere on the line to open its file or directory.
* When the popup `mouse-3' menu is displayed, the line it
pertains to is selected (`region' face).

;;;
;;; * Pass FILE-LIST to `dired-simultaneous-find-file' all with
;;; `dired-do-find-marked-files''s prefix argument OPTION.
;;;
;;; * `dired-simultaneous-find-file' runs through FILE-LIST decrementing the
;;; list each time.
;;;
;;; * If OPTION and `pop-up-frames' are both nil, then calculate the
;;; `size' of the window for each file by dividing the `window-height'
;;; by length of FILE-LIST. Thus, `size' is cognizant of the
;;; window-configuration.
;;;
;;; * If `size' is too small abort, otherwise run `find-file' on each element
;;; of FILE-LIST giving each a window of height `size'.

;;;;;; 1. This incorporates the `dired-x.el' change to the `dired.el'

;;;;;; The `dired-x.el' version respects the var `dired-find-subdir'.
;;;;;; When `dired-find-subdir' is non-nil, this version is the same
;;;;;; as the `dired-x.el' version, except that a bug is corrected:
;;;;;; Whenever the argument to `dired-find-buffer-nocreate' is a cons,
;;;;;; the call to `dired-buffers-for-dir' gave a wrong type error.
;;;;;; This has been avoided by not respecting `dired-find-subdir'
;;;;;; whenever `dired-find-buffer-nocreate' is a cons.
;;;;;; For the case when `dired-find-subdir' is nil, see #2, below.
;;;;;;

;;;;;; compare their cars (directories), not their explicit file lists
;;;;;; too. If equal, then update `dired-directory's file list to that
;;;;;; of DIRNAME.
;;;;;;
;;;;;; This prevents `dired-internal-noselect' (which is currently
;;;;;; `dired-find-buffer-nocreate's only caller) from creating a new
;;;;;; buffer in this case whenever a different set of files is present
;;;;;; in the cdr of DIRNAME and DIRNAME represents the same buffer as

PREDICATE is a lisp sexp that can refer to the following variables:
`mode' [string] file permission bits, e.g. \"-rw-r--r--\"
`nlink' [integer] number of links to file
`size' [integer] file size in bytes
`uid' [string] owner
`gid' [string] group (If the gid is not displayed by `ls',
this will still be set (to the same as uid))
`time' [string] the time that `ls' displays, e.g. \"Feb 12 14:17\"
`name' [string] the name of the file
`sym' [string] if file is a symbolic link, the linked-to name,
else \"\"
`inode' [integer] the inode of the file (only for `ls -i' output)
`blks' [integer] the size of the file for `ls -s' output
(ususally in blocks or, with `-k', in Kbytes)
Examples:
Mark zero-length files: `(equal 0 size)'
Mark files last modified on Feb 2: `(string-match \"Feb 2\" time)'
Mark uncompiled Emacs Lisp files (`.el' file without a `.elc' file):

* Provides more mouse utility - you can select a region,
then operate on its files. Alternative ways to select
(mark) multiple files:
. drag a region, then choose Mark in the popup menu
. click, then Shift-click, as in Windows Explorer
. Control-click, as in Windows Explorer (alternately marks
and unmarks the file)
That sounds good. Would someone please install that feature?
* Provides fancy highlighting (customizable through user
variables).
. You can see immediately if a file has the wrong
permissions (e.g. writable or executable when it
shouldn't be).
That sounds useful, if it is reliable.
* When a file is marked, the entire line is highlighted.
* Files that are marked and files that are flagged for
deletion have the mark/flag highlighted differently.
Those features sound useful.
* The entire line is highlighted on mouse-over, regardless
of where on the line the mouse is. Click `mouse-2'
anywhere on the line to open its file or directory.
I don't understand that one.

Screenshot attached.
I've mentioned this before, in the context also of grep (where I do the same
thing). The idea is to apply the `mouse-face' highlight to the entire line,
not just to the file name.
I prefer this because:
* You can scan lines by moving the mouse up and down, without needing to
hold it in a narrow vertical band at the right. Think of this as the effect
of holding a ruler horizontally when trying to scan a tabular list. It helps
you visually align everything in the same row - there's no risk of reading
the wrong file permissions for a given file, for instance. Similarly,
there's no risk of clicking mouse-2 on the left somewhere and opening the
wrong file.
* Without this, you can of course still click mouse-2 anywhere on the line
to open a file, but the visual feedback doesn't tell you that that is the
case - nothing indicates that the entire line is a hot zone (link) for
mouse-2.
IIRC, some others didn't like the idea when I described it previously
(perhaps in the context of grep; I don't remember).
A disadvantage I can think of, for people who use non-nil
`mouse-1-click-follows-link' (the default), is that they cannot then just
click mouse-1 somewhere to the left of the file name to set point (e.g. to
select a file size or time for subsequent yanking), without waiting for the
link-following behavior to time out. IOW, with this enhancement, mouse-1 and
mouse-2 are treated identically if you have non-nil
`mouse-1-click-follows-link': the entire line is a hot zone for both.
To me, not being able to set point as easily is not a big loss, and it is
wrong anyway, in UI terms, not to have visual feedback that the entire line
is a hot zone for mouse-2. I personally think it is also wrong to have
mouse-1 act like mouse-2 on only part of the line and reserve the mouse-over
feedback for only the mouse-2 hot zone. If mouse-1 is to act like mouse-2,
then it should do so generally, not over just part of the line, and the
visual feedback should reflect that.

The main disadvantage I see that it is completely impossible to avoid
the fireworks and distraction of a highlighted line as long as the
mouse cursor is anywhere within the window.

That should be easy -- just a matter of deciding what part of the text
to put the text properties on.
I have little opinion about which way is better. If most people here
prefer the whole-line way, let's change it.
