I would prefer this also, rather than pulling in all of dired-x. Michael,
would you like to review the parts of dired-x that should move over?
dired-x.el is divided into a number of sections for different features.
I use these features myself:
;;; JUMP.
;;; OMITTING.
;;; GUESS SHELL COMMAND.
These features look useful:
;;; EXTENSION MARKING FUNCTIONS.
;;; RELATIVE SYMBOLIC LINKS.
;;; VISIT ALL MARKED FILES SIMULTANEOUSLY.
This is pretty esoteric. It may be worth having this in a separate file
from dired.el since its use is disjoint from normal use of dired:
;;; VIRTUAL DIRED MODE.
These look obsolete to me:
;;; FIND FILE AT POINT.
;;; SMART SHELL.
;;; LOCAL VARIABLES FOR DIRED BUFFERS.
Within the miscellaneous section, the following might have some utility:
- dired-man
- dired-info
- dired-rmail
The following look obsolete:
- dired-vm
- dired-do-run-mail seems unnecessary without VM
