1) symbolic links show up with " -> target" after them, breaking your
suggested fix. 
2) There are patches to the GNU Emacs 18.57 release to support the
NeXT; I sent them to NeXT and to the FSF, but they haven't appeared
anywhere. I'll send them to anyone who will volunteer to be the
FTP site for them...

   GNU Emacs 18.55.121 on NeXT 2.0

   Current dired-find-file doesn't work for filenames containing spaces.
   Changing

		      (skip-chars-forward "^ \n")

   to

		      (skip-chars-forward "^\n")

   fixes this problem, but would be incorrect if the dired buffer could
   contain any fields after the filename.  I can't think of how this
   would happen, though.
