If I uncomment the (setq dired-omit-files-p t) line (which is what I'd
like to do), when I go into dired it constantly reverts the buffer
which makes navigation painful, and an eye-sore with jit font locking.
To get around this, I decided to just manually omit files each time I
enter a dired buffer. I hit M-o to omit, and it omits, then a few
seconds later it reverts to the full listing.
Am I missing something from my config? Or is this a known issue with
the version included in cvs emacs?
If you update your CVS and do _not_ set
`global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' non-nil (it is nil by default),
the problem should be gone now. I committed a patch late in the evening
of Feb 16, probably not very long after you downloaded your CVS
version. I have a patch that will fix the problem even if
`global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' _is_ non-nil, but I am waiting for
an OK to commit that second patch, which seemed less urgent than the
first, because `global-auto-revert-non-file-buffers' is a brand new
option (since Feb 16) and is nil by default.
Sincerely,
Luc.
