;; DIRED commands for Emacs.  $Revision: 5.15 $
;; Copyright (C) 1985, 1986, 1990 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
;; Enhanced from Emacs 18.55 dired by Sebastian Kremer <sk@thp.uni-koeln.de>

Yes, it was done based on Emacs 19, and he supplies emacs-19.el
for use with 18.55 to supply the version 19 functions used.
