Getting dired to list directories first in MSDOS

[Davin Pearson]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
 not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

In GNU Emacs 20.5 (i386-pc-msdosdjgpp)
 of Sun Mar 19 2000 on pc
configured using `configure -'

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

The following Lisp code puts directories first in NT-Emacs,
where (insert (emacs-version)) equals:

GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2004-03-11 on NYAUMO

My question is this: how do you get it to do the same thing under
MSDOS Emacs?

(progn
  ;;;
  ;;; COOL!!!!!!!!!!!
  ;;;
  (setq ls-lisp-ignore-case t)
  (setq ls-lisp-dirs-first t)
  (safe-require 'ls-lisp)
  )

Two more questions:

How do you get pasting to work between Emacs and Mozilla and vice
versa? (Note that I am using a DOS console.  Cutting and pasting
using NT Emacs works just fine.

How do you get Dos Emacs to load the file $HOME/.emacs
a.k.a ~/.emacs ?  I had to manually patch the line "Cmd line:"
in the properties field of the shortcut to Emacs.exe icon:

D:\PROGRA~1\EMACS-~1\gnu\emacs\bin\emacs.exe --load ~/.emacs
