You can already have this with some third party pacakges Checkout dired-hacks and dired-ranger. I think there were some other packages offereing a tree view of directories, but I don't remember any more I don't use dired that way myself. > - Starting executables from Dired under Windows (for example with S-RET, > OK, there's this package dired-launch).
