recursively directory listing in dired way.
Anand S. Dhankshirur
I want to list all the subdirectories and its contents of a directory
recursively in a dired buffer.
So that i can go to that file.
(running ls -lR shell command lists all the contents recursively but not
in dired way!)
I want to list all the contents in dired way.
How to do that?
Regards,
Anand

maybe there are better ways, but i just go to the dir, then do
Alt+x find-dired
when it asks for “Run Find”, give “-type f”. If you want html only,
you can do “-name *html” for example.

Look up "Virtual Dired" in dired-x. It's in info.

Hi Pete!
Where do you get these quotes?
I freak out on them (some at least)

Is the answer the following (call dired with a prefix), or did I
overlook something?
C-x d runs the command dired
which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `dired.el'.
It is bound to C-x d, <menu-bar> <file> <dired>.
(dired dirname &optional switches)
"Edit" directory dirname--delete, rename, print, etc. some files in
it.
Optional second argument switches specifies the `ls' options used.
I checked that it worked, with
GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2007-06-02 on RELEASE

Hi,
add the 'R' option to the underlying ls command by typing "1 s" in the
dired buffer of the top level directory:
s runs the command dired-sort-toggle-or-edit, which is an interactive
compiled Lisp function in `dired.el'.
It is bound to s.
(dired-sort-toggle-or-edit &optional arg)
Toggle between sort by date/name and refresh the dired buffer.
With a prefix argument you can edit the current listing switches instead.

As usual with emacs, there isn't a single way but many, none of them
being "the one".
A lot of people wrote packages for completion, I think they should be
listed and detailled here :

Some of them will come bundled to your emacs distribution, some others
won't. Please read and find out which suits the best your needs.
