While in this > kind of buffer, how can one reset the wildcard? I think it is not possible in dired-mode but it would be nifty (and consistent) if the wdired-mode could enable this simply by over-writing the wildcard specification (and typing =C2=B4g' for example). Or dired-find-alternate-file (`a') could provide this feature. Maybe you are willing to write a feature request when Emacs 22 is out? --=20 Best wishes H. Dieter Wilhelm Darmstadt, Germany
