Hi
I noticed a line in my dired that looks like this
lrwxrwxrwx 1 fred fred 42 Oct 24 01:05 .#myfile.cpp -> fred@localhost.localdomain.3415:1161501575
what does it mean to have a symlink to
"fred@localhost.localdomain.3415:1161501575"?
the shell output in xterm does not show it at all.
thanks

You're editing a file, and this file is changed right now.

Yup. Read all about that in the Emacs manual, in the node
"Interlocking", and in the ELisp manual, node "File Locks".

In fact you're editing it on a machine called "localhost.localdomain",
with process ID 3415, the editing started 1161501575 seconds since the Epoch,
(Sun Oct 22 08:19:35 BST 2006), and your user name is "fred".
Or, if the file is on a shared directory, "fred" is.
csmiller@localhost:/home/csmiller$ date -d "1 jan 1970 gmt 1161501575 seconds"
