Subject: bug#2068: 23.0.60; dired-get-filename includes `*' for executable in name
Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2009 22:54:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <007601c97f82$e5b0b910$0200a8c0@us.oracle.com> (raw)

emacs -Q
 
Create a file named `grep.exe' in some directory. The file content is
unimportant.
 
Use `C-u C-x d' to visit the directory, and specify `-alF' as the
listing switches.
 
Put the cursor on the line of the file named `grep.exe', which is
displayed as `grep.exe*' to show that it is executable.
 
M-: (dired-get-filename) returns "/the/dir/to/grep.exe*"
 
That is, the display artifact `*' is included as part of the file
name. This is also a bug in Emacs 22.3. It is a regression from Emacs
21.3.1.
