Replacing gzip with bzip2 in Emacs dired mode Here's a discussion thread with a fix on how to change dired to compress files with bzip2 instead of gzip by default.  It requires editing dired-aux.el and recompiling it.  It would be a nice project for someone to go in and make this a customize variable instead of this hack. 4:51:12 PM

Web Sailor's Emacs Cygwin Customizations This a great page for getting Emacs and Cygwin to work together more harmoniously.  I used a tip on this page to fix a problem I was having where Emacs dired mode would not uncompress files. 4:27:05 PM
