Just takeout the "a" from `dired-listing-switches'.
A function to toggle it is:
(defun toggle-all-in-dired-listing-switches ()
"Add or take the `a' in/out of `dired-listing-switches'"
(interactive)
(if (string-match "a" dired-listing-switches)
(setq dired-listing-switches (concat
(substring dired-listing-switches 0 (match-beginning 0))
(substring dired-listing-switches (match-end 0))))
(setq dired-listing-switches (concat dired-listing-switches "a"))))
And assigning it to your preferred key:
(global-set-key "<key>" 'toggle-all-in-dired-listing-switches)
To check the key description do C-h C-k followed by the key combination
you want. For example: alt-x a the "<key>" is "\M-xa".
Ehud.
