-;;;; WARNING:
+;; LISPDIR ENTRY for the Elisp Archive ===============================
+;;    LCD Archive Entry:
+;;    dired-lisp|Sebastian Kremer|sk@thp.uni-koeln.de
+;;    |emulate Dired's ls completely in Emacs Lisp 
+;;    |$Date: 1991/09/20 13:20:58 $|$Revision: 4.19 $|
+
+;; INSTALLATION =======================================================
+;; 
+;; Put this file into your load-path.  Loading it will result in
+;; redefining function dired-ls to not call ls.
+
+;; OVERVIEW ===========================================================
 
-;;;; With earlier version of this program I sometimes got an internal
-;;;; Emacs error:
+;; This file overloads tree dired so that all fileinfo is retrieved
+;; directly from Emacs lisp, without using an ls subprocess.
+
+;; Useful if you cannot afford to fork Emacs on a real memory UNIX,
+;; under VMS, or if you don't have the ls program, or if you want
+;; different format from what ls offers.
 
-;;;;   Signalling: (wrong-type-argument natnump #<EMACS BUG: ILLEGAL
-;;;;   DATATYPE (#o37777777727) Save your buffers immediately and please
-;;;;   report this bug>)
+;; Beware that if you change the output format of dired-ls, you'll
+;; have to change dired-move-to-filename and
+;; dired-move-to-end-of-filename as well.
 
-;;;; The datatype differs (I also got #o67 once).
+;; With this package is loaded, dired uses regexps instead of shell
+;; wildcards. If you enter regexps remember to double each $ sign.
+;; For example, to dired all elisp (*.el) files, enter `.*\.el$$',
+;; resulting in the regexp `.*\.el$'.
+
+;; WARNING ===========================================================
+
+;; With earlier version of this program I sometimes got an internal
+;; Emacs error:
 
-;;;; Sometimes emacs just crashed with a fatal error.

+
+;;  RESTRICTIONS =====================================================
+
+;; * ls switches are mostly ignored, see docstring of `dired-ls'.
+
+;; * In Emacs 18: cannot display date of file, displays a fake date
+;;   "Jan 00 00:00" instead (dates do work in Emacs 19)
 
-;;;  RESTRICTIONS:

-;;;; Only numeric uid/gid
-;;;; Loading ange-ftp breaks it
+;; * Only numeric uid/gid
 
-;;;; It is surprisingly fast, though!
+;; * if you load dired-lisp after ange-ftp, remote listings look
+;;   really strange: 
+;;

+;;   d?????????  -1 -1       -1             -1 Jan  1  1970 .
+;;   d?????????  -1 -1       -1             -1 Jan  1  1970 ..
+;;
+;;   This is because ange-ftp's file-attributes does not return much
+;;   useful information.
+;;
+;;   If you load dired-lisp first, there seem to be no problems.
