!   To invoke Dired, do @kbd{C-x d} or @kbd{M-x dired}.  The command reads
! a directory name or wildcard file name pattern as a minibuffer argument
! to specify which files to list.  Where @code{dired} differs from
! @code{list-directory} is in putting the buffer into Dired mode so that
! the special commands of Dired are available.
  
    The variable @code{dired-listing-switches} specifies the options to
! give to @code{ls} for listing directory; this string @emph{must} contain
  @samp{-l}.  If you use a numeric prefix argument with the @code{dired}
  command, you can specify the @code{ls} switches with the minibuffer
  before you enter the directory specification.  No matter how they are

  @kindex e @r{(Dired)}
  Equivalent to @kbd{f}.
  
+ @ignore  @c This command seems too risky to document at all.
  @item a
  @kindex a @r{(Dired)}
  @findex dired-find-alternate-file
  Like @kbd{f}, but replaces the contents of the Dired buffer with
  that of an alternate file or directory (@code{dired-find-alternate-file}).
+ @end ignore
  
  @item o
  @kindex o @r{(Dired)}

  Visit the file named by the line you click on
