Re: emacs dired + tramp seeing invalid characters
Michael
Thanks for spot-on debug, yes looks like that was the problem.
I had the following setting in my init file
(setq dired-listing-switches "-hltFGH --time-style=long-iso
--group-directories-first -*-color=auto*")
and that conflicts with tramp's --color=never requirement.
i removed it and made it following
(setq dired-listing-switches "-hltFGH --time-style=long-iso
--group-directories-first")
and it works fine now !!!
Thanks for the prompt debug !! tramp rocks !

I've just read your debug buffer again, and ls is called like this:
--8<---cut here---start->8---
12:31:01.469621 tramp-send-command (6) # /usr/bin/ls --color=never --dired
-hltFGH --time-style\=long-iso --group-directories-first --color\=auto
--sort\=version --quoting-style\=literal --show-control-chars
/xxx/x//. 2>/dev/null
--8<---cut here---end--->8---
"--color=never" comes from Tramp. But there are other arguments, like
"--color\=auto", which are not from Tramp, and which trigger ls output
colorization. Could you, please, check your customization?
Best regards, Michael.

This is colrized ls output ("[01;34m" is blue). Do you see it only in
the Tramp debug buffer, or also in a dired buffer?
Tramp tries to handle this, and a more recent Tramp should have no
problem. Which Emacs / Tramp version are you using?
Best regards, Michael.
