Just to be absolutely save,
(= (length (get-buffer-window-list)) 1))
could be changed to
(> (length (get-buffer-window-list)) 1))
>> I thought those functions are only useful inside dired buffer windows.
is that not the case? If not (length (get-buffer-window-list)) will
count the windows that are displaying the current buffer whatever that
is, and kill or not kill a dired buffer depending on the result.
