  ** In Dired's ! command (dired-do-shell-command), `*' and `?' now
  control substitution of the file names only when they are surrounded
  by whitespace.  This means you can now use them as shell wildcards
! too.  If you want to use just plain `*' as a wildcard, type `*""';
! it has the same effect in the shell, but avoids special treatment
! in Dired !.
  
  ** Unquoted `$' in file names do not signal an error any more when
  the corresponding environment variable does not exist.
