Hallo Eli, what I wrote is wrong. The problem is the function "file-attributes" in dired.c. Here another test:
(file-attributes "c:/home/maierha/tmp/tmp.dat") (nil 1 5 5 (17968 29649) (17968 29649) (17968 29268) 4249180672.0 "-rw-rw-rw-" nil -6212 9360833) (nil 1 5 5 (17968 29652) (17968 29652) (17968 29268) 4283041792.0 "-rw-rw-rw-" nil -6212 9360833) (nil 1 5 5 (17968 29653) (17968 29653) (17968 29268) 1024 "-rw-rw-rw-" nil -6212 9360833) The function was called during the creation of the file with the dd command. I am using the dd command from cygwin. The problem happens too with tramp (plink). Harald -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Maier, Harald Gesendet: Donnerstag, 26.

If I look into the C-Code then it appears that the problem is in the function "directory_files_internal" in dired.c. There "...nbytes" and "len" variables are only a integers. Unfortunately I am not able to debug C-Sources. Harald
