The current idutils.el does not contain much. It is just a define-compilation-mode (which adds nothing but adds one keyword) and a a command gid which just does compilation-start (and does some things that belongs to define-compile-command). But since Eli says idutils are good (and I do not doubt that) I started looking at it. I thought there was no binary download (it is not mentioned on the GNU Id Utils home page at all), but there is one in gnuwin32. I installed that and tried it. However it either crashes or says something like this C:\>mkid -o OUTFILE DIR mkid: can't get working directory: Permission denied Eli, can you tell me what binary you are using and how you run mkid?
