bug#33146: .authinfo.gpg not automatically loaded when using (dired) on macOS

[Christian Johansson]

Hi!

Alright, that worked. Would it be possible to make ange-ftp.el 
automatically aware of .authinfo files?
I think that would improve user experience a lot.

I can try adding support for that if it's possible

Regards
Christian
