Subject: C-x C-f RET problem...
Date: Thu, 16 May 2002 09:45:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3y9ekv8mj.fsf@Janik.cz> (raw)
Hi,
my users found the behavior of C-x C-f RET quite inconsistent with the rest
of Emacs. After typing C-x C-f you will see the current directory in the
minibuffer. Just after RET you *can* expect to see your current directory
opened in dired. Well, I'm quite used to the current behavior so
I personally do not have problem with it, but my users found it quite
irritating: "How is it possible that C-x C-f and the directory opens file
and not that directory?".
What do you think?
