I try to edit or enter the following in Dired:

    c:\temp\~DF7FB1.tmp
    c:\temp\~cbu_tmp\

But I just end up in my %HOME% directory.  I've been able to turn off
tilde electrification, but cannot figure out how to get Emacs to stop
internally expanding the tilde (~) character.

Google Groups archives numerous questions regarding this matter but no
solutions, from what I could find, have been given.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Bob

[I wrote regarding editing files and paths with tildes in them]

It seems this issue has been addressed in newer versions.  (I was using a
version that was nearly four years old(!)...gotta update more often.)

Ciao,
Bob
