Ladies, *
You are in a dired buffer, with the cursor resting on, oh,
drwxr-xr-x 96 jidanni jidanni 8192 02 28 04:41 somedir
You:
do 1) hit RET
or 2) hit e
or 3) hit f
In each case you get "dired by name". There are no keys that get you
dired by date, as a shortcut. Three vs. zero gentlemen, I mean
ladies.
Indeed, one must hit RET s, e s, or f s, to get to
dired-by-date... with the waste of an extra call.
Anyway, looks like a typical case of injustice... 3 to 0 fellas, I
mean gals.
By the way, that is from dired itself. One should also make dired by
date analogs to C-x d for use from any buffer.
Some might say "what is your problem today, J****son? can't you just
hit s after you get there?" I say "but why sort twice? Try it on a
large directory, silly"
* I now have to make up for all the previous messages using
"Gentlemen," please excuse me.
