Subject: bug#11062: 24.0.94; manual: wrong default value of `dired-recursive-copies'
Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2012 03:53:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ty1h4a86.fsf@web.de> (raw)
Hi,
also in Emacs 23, btw:
In the manual, node Dired -> Operating on Files:
`C NEW <RET>'
[...]
The variable `dired-recursive-copies' controls whether to copy
directories recursively (like `cp -r'). The default is `nil',
which means that directories cannot be copied.
But the default value of `dired-recursive-copies' is top.
Michael.
