Hi,

Whenever a directory is inserted in the current dired buffer, using 'i',
the font-locking (.e.g. folders and files showing in different colors) of
the parent directories are lost.  Only the inserted directory shows proper
font-locking.  This makes reading quite hard.  Does anybody know how to
retain the font-locking across the entire dired buffer?


Cheers,

Works for me. Try emacs -Q and check your config.

I found out that this is happening as a result of having:


,-----[ C-h v eshell-ls-use-in-dired RET ]
| eshell-ls-use-in-dired is a variable defined in `em-ls.el'.
| Its value is t
| 
| Documentation:
| *If non-nil, use `eshell-ls' to read directories in Dired.
| 
| You can customize this variable.
| 
| [back]
`-----


in GNU Emacs 22.0.90.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2006-10-27 on nautilus, modified by Debian.
