Dear Ange / Sandy:

I don't know if this counts as a bug report or not, as it is an
installation problem. When I installed efs (using make install) it did
not byte-compile nor copy dired-fsf.el to the correct directory. After
putting (require 'efs) in my .emacs and restarting, I couldn't dired
any directory! (It took me about 5 minutes to cope with this startling
loss of capability and open a shell buffer to deal with it using
normal tcsh commands).

I byte compiled dired-fsf.el, then moved it into the lisp directory
that efs is in, and all works fine now. A quick search of the Makefile
showed that dired-fsf is not even mentioned there. I guess it should
be.
