Toggling between displaying just the filenames and the full ls -l details makes it very clear what is being searched, and it's also nice for other reasons. The patch was sent 2007-07-22 with subject "[rob giardina.us: dired-details merged into dired]" http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/75275 As far as I can see, nobody has posted review comments for the patch. Is it just too ugly? Too incomplete? Not an attractive feature? The only annoyance I have with dired-details.el is that M-w copies the hidden part too, which is not what I expect. I'm using a horrible buffer-substring-filters hack to prevent that locally (don't see how to do it properly without switching from overlays to text properties). -- Ren=E9
