Dear Emacs community, Goal: Being in Dired mode I want to apply a shell command to a file asynchronously.
Details: I'm using the extension dired-x.el, Emacs 21.2.1. When in Dired mode I use dired-do-shell-command for launching xdvi on a .dvi file. I want to use Emacs further while browsing the xdvi window, but that is impossible since Emacs waits until the xdvi process is terminated. Thank you very much in advance for any help. luis -- Luis Octavio Silva Pereyra.
