Thank you very much. Your way to exclude only some disturbing files seems much
better to me.
But I fail to exclude in Emacs 24.3 under Windows 7 lines in recentf like
this:
c:/Users/aw/AppData/Local/Temp/diary1234ABc
The filename is always "diary" + 4 digits + letters (2-4 letters)
So I wrote:
(setq recentf-exclude '(
"/diary[0-9]\{4\}[a-zA-Z]\{2,4\}$"
))
but without success, all the lines of my temp-diaries still appear in recentf.
Probably I should start the regex with something different than "/", but I
tried everything I could think of, e.g. "\\",
"c:/Users/aw/AppData/Local/Temp/", without "$" at the end...
As I'm running out of ideas, maybe you could give me a hint again.

Alexander
