The I/O stream itself would + serve as a function to read or write one character. + +* If a file you can't write is in a directory you can write, + make sure it works to modify and save this file. + +* Make dired's commands handle correctly the case where + ls has listed several subdirectories' contents. + It needs to be able to tell which directory each file + is really in, by searching backward for the line + which identifies the start of a directory. + +* Add more dired commands, such as sorting (use the + sort utility through call-process-region). + +* Make display.c record inverse-video-ness on + a character by character basis. Then make non-full-screen-width + mode lines inverse video, and display the marked location in + inverse video. + +* VMS code to list a file directory. Make dired work.
