The user had to toggle the read-only status of the dired buffer in order to undo after hitting 'g', so it was not something you did by chance. >"I can always delete something in dired, since undo will get it back". In fact, undo works after deleting a file in Emacs 22. It correctly gives you the warning: Change in dired buffer undone. Actual changes in files cannot be undone by Emacs. To undo a deletion, you don't even need to toggle the read-only status. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
