There were discussions about moving shell command guessing code from dired-x.el to dired-aux.el (or in dired.el). I think this should be done before the next release because it will eliminate an unfinished feature in dired.el which uses dired-view-command-alist and which partly started duplicating the functionality already present in dired-x.el. I could submit the patch to emacs-devel if Richard agrees. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
