Hello all,

I reached for a timer because I've been working with them recently
but, of course, using advice is aprroximately one hundred times
better:

 (advice-add
  'dired-mode :after
  (lambda (&rest args)
    (hi-lock-face-buffer "\\([^/]+\\):\n" 'bold 1))
  '((name . highlight-directory-name-in-headers)))

I'd still love to know why adding an 'ordinary' function to
dired-mode-hook doesn't work.
