I'm really enjoying your video, and will need to watch it a few more times before I can get through it without laughing. The key sequences this time indicate that you are doing your best to avoid actually using diredc and are working hard to create complications for yourself. For example, you launch diredc, but then instead of using it you make a direct use of M-x dired. Then you perform C-x 3 to make it look to you like you might be in diredc (you aren't). And it continues. I've watched the video a few times but have never gotten to the end yet, because I'm laughing too hard. The usage instructions for diredc are pretty short, so try reading them. That's what they're for, and if they're unclear I'll be happy to edit them for clarity and simplicity. If you did read them once, it's obvious that either they weren't clearly written or you weren't paying attention. The video shows that you eventually figured out that after performing M-x package-install-from-buffer, you need to take the extra step of loading the library (you didn't want to follow my simpler instructions to just evaluate the buffer, but that's cool; emacs is all about choices). The intention is for the users to perform M-x diredc (it should be bound to S-) to launch it, *and* to use the same command to toggle into and out of the diredc frame. A design goal of the package is to avoid accumulating more than two dired buffers, and to keep an orderly dired configuration. There should never be a need to call dired itself directly; When you want to use dired, perform S- to enter diredc. The default keybinding '/' will take you anywhere (and will push the location on the panel's history stack so you can quick navigate back). "C-u /" pops up a history list for the selected pane and, well I'm just re-writing the documentation now, aren't I... When I make it through the video, I'll continue and respond to the rest of your e-mail. =2D- hkp://keys.gnupg.net CA45 09B5 5351 7C11 A9D1 7286 0036 9E45 1595 8BC0
