(diredfd-enable) This makes Dired automatically turn on `diredfd-mode' in `dired-mode' that provides the following features: - color directories in cyan and symlinks in yellow like FDclone - sort directory listings in the directory-first style - alter key bindings to mimic FD/FDclone - not open a new buffer when you navigate to a new directory - run a shell command in ansi-term to allow launching interactive commands - automatically revert the buffer after running a command with obvious side-effects - automatically add visited files to `file-name-history` (customizable) Without spoiling Dired's existing features. As usual, customization is available via: M-x customize-group diredfd RET
