  29. Dired Mark Internals
  30. ====================
  31.  
  32.    This is a short overview about how marking files and retrieving
  33. marked files in Dired works.
  34.  
  35.    `ls' output is indented two spaces two make room for an optional
  36. marker character in front of each file line.  Marking simply replaces
  37. the first space with the marker character, usually `*' or, for
  38. deletions, `D'.  Indenting just by one would leave the markers
  39. adjacent to the permission bits.
  40.  
  41. `dired-mark-if'
  42.      The macro `dired-mark-if' is used internally to mark files
  43.      matching certain criteria. It takes two arguments, the PREDICATE,
  44.      a lisp expression evaluating non-nil on file lines to be marked,
  45.      and MSG, a message to be displayed while scanning the buffer. 
  46.      MSG may be nil to suppress the message.
  47.  
  48. `dired-mark-map'
  49.      To operate on the marked files, all internal Dired functions
  50.      ultimately call the macro `dired-mark-map'.  It takes two
  51.      arguments, BODY and ARG, plus an optional argument SHOW-PROGRESS:
  52.  
  53.      Perform BODY with point somewhere on each marked line (inside a
  54.      `save-excursion') and return a list of BODY's results.  If no
  55.      marked file could be found, execute BODY on the current line.
  56.  
  57.      If ARG is an integer, use the next ARG (or previous -ARG, if
  58.      ARG<0) files instead of the marked files.  In that case point is
  59.      dragged along.  This is so that commands on the next ARG (instead
  60.      of the marked) files can be chained easily.  Note that for
  61.      positive ARG point is left on the first file not operated upon,
  62.      for negative on the last file operated upon
  63.  
  64.      If ARG is otherwise non-nil, use current file instead.
  65.  
  66.      If optional third argument SHOW-PROGRESS evaluates to non-nil, we
  67.      redisplay the Dired buffer after each file is processed.  No
  68.      guarantee is made about the position on the marked line.  BODY
  69.      must ensure this itself if it depends on this.  Search starts at
  70.      the beginning of the buffer, thus the `car' of the list
  71.      corresponds to the line nearest to the buffer's bottom.  This is
  72.      also true for (positive and negative) integer values of ARG.  The
  73.      BODY should not be too long as it is expanded four times.
  74.  
  75. A common case is to retrieve the names of all marked files:
  76.  
  77. `dired-mark-get-files'
  78.      Return the marked files as list of strings.  The list is in the
  79.      same order as the buffer, that is, the car is the first marked
  80.      file.  Values returned are normally absolute pathnames.  Optional
  81.      argument LOCALP equal to `no-dir' means return the filename
  82.      proper only, with no directory information; any other non-nil
  83.      value means make them relative to default-directory.  Optional
  84.      second argument ARG forces use of other files.  If ARG is an
  85.      integer, use the next ARG files.  If ARG is otherwise non-nil,
  86.      use the current file.

  91. Known Problems with Dired
  92. *************************
  93.  
  94.    There are some problems with Dired that are either not Dired's
  95. fault, hard to fix or not worth fixing.
  96.  
  97.    * Renaming directories usually works fine (all affected Dired and
  98.      file buffers are updated), but moving a directory between
  99.      different filesystems (those on different hard disks or different
  100.      partitions) does not work: it creates a plain target file
  101.      containing the contents of the original directory (inodes and
  102.      filenames) or fails completely.
  103.  
  104.      Unfortunately Emacs' builtin function `rename-file' does not give
  105.      you a clear error message like `cross-device link attempted', but
  106.      rather a spurious `(file-error "Removing old name" "not owner")',
  107.      at least in Emacs 18.55.
  108.  
  109.      On some systems renaming a directory always fails (even within
  110.      the same filesystem) with the spurious `not owner' error.
  111.  
  112.    * If `foo' is a symlink to a non-existing file, `(file-exists-p
  113.      "foo")' returns nil.  Thus, Dired will overwite such (strange)
  114.      kinds of symlinks without noticing.
  115.  
  116.      Dired could test both `file-symlink-p' and `file-exists-p', but
  117.      this would slow down all file operations to catch a very rare
  118.      case.
  119.  
  120.    * Copying a directory does not work - it results in a zero-length
  121.      target file.
  122.  
  123.      This comes from Emacs' `copy-file' function, not from Dired.
  124.  
  125.      If you really want to copy a directory (recursively), use `!' and
  126.      your favorite shell command to do it (e.g. cp -R or cp -r).
  127.  
  128.    * Initial spaces in a filename are not recognized.  If I could be
  129.      sure that all `ls' programs insert exactly one space between the
  130.      time and the filename, I could easily fix this.  But `ls'
  131.      programs tend to vary in their amount of white space, and even
  132.      with one `ls' program there is a difference between year and
  133.      clocktime formats
  134.  
  135.             drwxr-xr-x 2 ab027    thp           512 Aug 13 1990  thp/
  136.             drwxr-xr-x 4 ab027    thp           512 Feb  3 21:59 ./
  137.  
  138.           If your `ls' supports the `-b' switch and quotes spaces with that
  139.      switch, simply add `b' to your `dired-listing-switches'.  *Note
  140.      Listing Files in Dired::.
  141.  
  142.      Spaces anywhere but at the beginning do work.
  143.  
  144.    * In general, only commands that may have targets outside of the
  145.      current directory tree update other buffers (copy, move and link
  146.      commands).
  147.  
  148.      Especially, deletions, (un)compress, chmod/chgrp/chown update only
  149.      the current buffer.
  150.  
  151.    * Some compress programs make output even if all goes well.  Dired
  152.      takes output as a sign of trouble and assumes that the subprocess
  153.      failed.
  154.  
  155.      Redefine function `dired-check-process-checker' suitably to look
  156.      closer at the generated output.  In Emacs 19, the exit status of
  157.      compress will be checked.
  158.  
  159.    * Aliases like `rm -i' for `rm' or `ls -F' for `ls' can cause
  160.      problems in Dired's (and Emacs') shell command.  (Aliases for
  161.      `ls' only matter if you dired wildcards, because only then the
  162.      shell is used to run `ls'.)  Csh expands aliases only for
  163.      interactive shells, which is probably what you want.  In Bash,
  164.      you can achieve this by testing `PS1' in your `~/.bashrc':
  165.  
  166.             # `.bashrc' file
  167.             # this test fails when invoked by rsh
  168.             if [ "${PS1-no}" != "no" ]       # is this an interactive shell?
  169.             then
  170.                 . ~/.bash_alias          # if so, source aliases
  171.             fi
  172.  
  173.    * Directory names starting with `-' (a minus) may lose when they are
  174.      to be created or removed.  If you care about this, and your rmdir
  175.      and mkdir understand about `--' meaning end of options, change
  176.      `emacs-19.el' accordingly.
  177.  
  178.      In Emacs 19 the `make-directory' and `remove-directory'
  179.      operations will be builtin, not implemented with `rmdir' and
  180.      `mkdir' subprocesses.
  181.  
  182.    * `dired-nstd.el': This is still buggy.  For example, after you've
  183.      compressed the last file it may not correctly return that file's
  184.      absolute pathname (`dired-current-directory' erronously returns
  185.      nil because of markers collapsed during redisplay), ultimately
  186.      leading to lisp errors.
  187.  
  188.    * The regexp-using `%'-commands get into an endless loop if you
  189.      specify a regular expression that matches the empty string.
  190.  
  191.    * Function `find-alternate-file' in Emacs 18.57 has a bug that
  192.      causes `C-x C-v RET' (which usually re-visits the current buffer)
  193.      to fail on Dired buffers.  This is fixed in the version in
  194.      `emacs-19.el', automatically loaded by Dired.
  195.  
  196.    * It is not possible to resort the Dired buffer without reverting
  197.      it. That would be hard to implement (and slow to run) given that
  198.      ls date format would have to be parsed for `ls -t' sorting order.
