The emacs manual says they should. Could be you're trying to use setq or such to achieve the desired =20 effect? The correct way is via the customise interface, i.e. in the =20 end of ~/.emacs, starting with (custom-set-variables you can add entries like '(dired-listing-switches "-alN --ignore=3DPATTERN") until a final ) is encountered. I have no idea what this PATTERN could look like, so =20 I had on the command line no success. You can find access to the =20 customise system by checking the value of the variable dired-listing-=20 switches. -- Mit friedvollen Gr=FC=DFen Pete _o o o o _<< \\_/\_, \\_ \\_/\_, (*)/(*) (*) (*) (*) `- (*)
