Today's GNU Emacs CVS snapshot, Fri, 2006 Feb 10 11:04 UTC GNU Emacs 22.0.50.25 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.8.10) started with emacs/src/emacs -Q -D 1. tumme-mark-tagged-files fails Using the following regular expression \(.*\.gif\|.*\.jpg\|.*\.png\) `C-t f' (tumme-mark-tagged-files) whose documentation says: Use regexp to mark files with matching tag. failed to mark any files. The *Message* buffer said: 0 files with matching tag marked. 2. dired-mark-files-regexp succeeds Using the same regular expression, `% m' (dired-mark-files-regexp) whose documentation says: Mark all files matching regexp for use in later commands. marked all the matching files. The *Message* buffer said: 370 matching files marked. 3. tumme-display-thumbs displays marked files After a long wait, `C-t d' (tumme-display-thumbs) successfully displayed the files marked with `% m' in a different buffer. 4. No loading in background No loading occurred in the background. Hence, the long wait. 5. No data provided easily The new buffer did not display the images with the data provided by dired. In particular, it did not display images with names, sizes, and dates. (You can click on an image to obtain its name -- I don't know how to do this while keeping my hands on the keyboard -- but compared to other thumbnail programs, that clicking does not provide much efficiency when you are looking at many images; for one, you must remember which visual image goes with which size.) Query: Is there a command in the current CVS that shows the thumbnails with information? Second Query: What are its bindings, both mouse and keyboard? Comment: Back on 5 February using iimage.el, Juri Linkov showed what can be done to make an Emacs thumbnail packages more useful. -- Robert J.
