Is there away to filter the directory list provided by Dired by showing or hiding all files which match a regular expression? Say I just wanted to see files in the current directory which ended with .html. Thanks for everything! - Corey Foote Toby Software LLC
Here is one way : 1. Mark all files you want to see with `%m' 2. Inverse the marks via `*t' 3. Invoke `dired-do-kill-lines' with `k' 4. Reset the listing with `g' Wrapped up in a function : (defun dired-show-only (regexp) (interactive "sFiles to show (regexp): ") (dired-mark-files-regexp regexp) (dired-toggle-marks) (dired-do-kill-lines)) (define-key dired-mode-map [?%?h] 'dired-show-only) -ap
