dired-noselect.

[Matt Hodges]

I have some code that uses dired-noselect to list a set of files from
different directories in a single dired buffer. In 21.3, the
following:

(display-buffer
 (dired-noselect '("/" "/usr/bin/top" "/etc/issue")))

displays a buffer containing:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
  /:
  -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        63960 Sep 15 00:59 /usr/bin/top
  -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           38 Jul 17  2002 /etc/issue
----------------------------------------------------------------------

With the CVS development version, the same code leads to an error:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp ("/" "/usr/bin/top" 
"/etc/issue"))
  expand-file-name(("/" "/usr/bin/top" "/etc/issue"))
  dired-mode(("/" "/usr/bin/top" "/etc/issue") "-al")
  dired-internal-noselect(("/" "/usr/bin/top" "/etc/issue") nil)
  dired-noselect(("/" "/usr/bin/top" "/etc/issue"))
  (display-buffer (dired-noselect (quote ...)))
  eval((display-buffer (dired-noselect (quote ...))))
  eval-last-sexp-1(nil)
  eval-last-sexp(nil)
  call-interactively(eval-last-sexp)
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Should I be using something else? Basically, I want a buffer that
contains a list of files that can be easily navigated, with the files
being easy to visit (i.e., single keystrokes).

Thanks.
