hi

this is no really a bug it is rather a suggestion

while using dired (what a great tool!) when a 'R' command is issued to
rename a file, it would be useful to have the full filename appear in
the minibuffer. Currently only the directory name appear.

Sorry if this is not the correct place to make suggestions.
