The default in normal find-file is for RET to open a directory in dired, but with ido-find-file, RET will open a (useless) buffer containing the name of the files in that directory and C-d is needed to open the directory in dired. There is no way I'm going to be able to retrain my fingers to do that, and it is also undesirable behaviour. Is there any way to get ido-find-file to DWIM? Best regards, Sam
