[comp.emacs] Dired - CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS

sk@thp.uni-koeln.de (11/25/90)

I'm looking for some beta testers for my new version of Dired, which
will perhaps go into the next Emacs release.

Features are: marking of files for later commands (nearly all dired
commands work on lists of marked files), shell commands on files, tree
dired (ls -lR output and insertion of subdirectories in situ), diffing
files, sorting on name or date, copy/move into directories, spaces in
filenames allowed, and many little enhancements/fixes.  It also works
much better with ange-ftp.

I'm running SunOS 4.1 most of the time myself, and would like to
have beta testers for SysV, Ultrix, HP-UX,... and perhaps VMS.  You
should use Emacs and Dired heavily and be willing to report bugs,
comments, suggestions to me:

The response was overwhelming.  Thanks to all who have replied!

Please don't send me any more requests for beta testing.  Thanks.
