The error message I get is: dired-mark-sexp: Search failed: "\\(Jan\\|Feb\\|Mar\\|Apr\\|May\\|Jun\\|Jul\\|Aug\\|Sep\\|Oct\\|Nov\\|Dec\\)" I'm almost sure that this is because of how the dired buffer looks like: z:/Docmaw/Core/Docmaw 2.2.0/Docmaw/Source/Java/ifs/Docmaw: total used in directory 2333 available 46509008 drwxrwxrwx 1 mdahse root 0 06-15 15:35 . drwxrwxrwx 1 mdahse root 0 06-15 15:35 .. -rw-rw-rw- 1 mdahse root 41713 2003-10-13 ApprovalCurrentStepDocApproveOvw.java -rw-rw-rw- 1 mdahse root 34001 2002-12-26 ApprovalCurrentStepOvw.java -rw-rw-rw- 1 mdahse root 3630 2003-02-12 BookListLov.java I have tested this using --no-init-file --no-site-file and it still gives these kinds of dired lines. When I test on my Mandrake box at home I get the names of the months displayed in the dired buffer, and this of course makes dired-mark-sexp much more happy. Is this a bug or have I fscked up? /Mathias
