Ugh. It could be done, but as I said earlier: >> FWIW, the regexp in question, >> `directory-listing-before-filename-regexp', is >> among the hairiest I've come across (have a look >> - quite amusing), and I don't think it's a good idea to >> try to test against that value. Anyway, there is no problem in this particular case, as I can just test for 23.2 and ignore supporting dev versions before that (since the release is imminent). The general question remains, however - see my last mail.
