BTW, the logic should be reversed: it should be insert-directory > that gets customized to either use `ls' or `ls-lisp'. aaaaah, now everything comes into place: using emacs on mac osx and windows-nt i had strange errors on macos after copying my .emacs file from the nt-box. i had customized ls-lisp on windows-nt because it just showed up in the custoimiation but on mac osx it is, iguess, NOT preinstalled. i guess i'll use ls-lisp on both machines, any caveats i have to think of? cheers, leo
