[comp.emacs] Dired on VMS machines -- request for fix

templon@silver.bacs.indiana.edu (jeffrey templon) (05/21/89)

	I am requesting a fix for the VMS version of dired.  The
documentation states

	Type f to Find the current line's file
	  (or Dired it, if it is a directory).

However, on VMS machines when one types f on the line containing a
subdirectory, one receives a Dired listing which contains one line, e.g.

 ETC.DIR   (....)

if ETC.DIR was the one you wanted to look at.  It does NOT give you a
listing of all the files in [.ETC] which is what it would do on a unix
system.

	Can anyone fix this?  I don't know Lisp at all so I am pretty
lost.
