I use GNU Emacs 18.52 with Leonard Zubkoff's Apollo extensions but I see this faulty behavior on non-extended versions of GNU Emacs also. The following expression: (expand-file-name "/usr/../usr/bin") expands to: "//usr/bin" rather than "/usr/bin". This causes dired on a number of directories to fail. Is this a bug? Does anyone have a patch for the complicated "expand-file-name" code? Any help is appreciated. -- Bob Weiner, Motorola, Inc., USENET: ...!gatech!uflorida!novavax!weiner (407) 738-2087
