No, you were not doing anything wrong.
Here's the explanation (it was a bug):

(require 'dired-details+) loads dired-details+, which in turn does (require
'dired-details), which loads dired-details.

But neither explicitly loads dired, which is where variable `dired-mode-map' is
defined. After it loads dired-details, dired-details+ tries to use that variable
at load time --> error.

Should be fixed now. The fix is to use the variable not at load time, but after
dired is loaded.

Thx - Drew


Hi Drew,

Sorry to bother again, I re-installed it and everything seems to work except for the neat key-binding, '(' and ')', in dired-details+ where pressing either would change the view.

When I put (require 'dired-details+) in my .emacs on invoking dired by `C-x d' everything starts up as it should but the key-bindings are ')' for more details and '(' for less details, instead of either of them working as the toggle. However when I load it using `M-x load-library dired-details+' I get the expected behaviour, either keys '(' or ')' toggles the details in the dired buffer.

Thank you
