It's not something specific to > dired-do-hardlink. So if you rename a file from within dired, dired displays the same file name? If you change its permissions from within dired, it displays the same permissions? If you move it or delete it from within dired, it stays there as if it existed before? If you copy to some other directory under dired, the files don't arrive in the display there? Could you substantiate your claim? I can't seem to find any basic dired operation that does _not_ update the view (except that when you are renaming files in a sorted buffer, the buffer does not get resorted. But the name is still changed in the display). -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum Email: David.Kastrup@t-online.de
