The behavior of copy-directory in emacs-23 (i.e copying only contents of dir) is stupid. Thus, emacs-24--copy-directory have an option to enable this feature if one want to use it, so no excuse to keep this. Could you fix that? (by merging Emacs-24 copy-directory and dired-create-files in 23). Note that in addition to copy-directory, this make a bug in dired-copy-file and dired-copy-file-recursive when one want to use them out of dired-create-files. -- A+ Thierry Get my Gnupg key: gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 59F29997
