In the dired bundled with efs-1.15:
------------------------------------------------------------
dired-version's value is "7.9"
  -- a variable declared in Lisp.

Documentation:
The revision number of Tree Dired (as a string).

Don't forget to mention this when reporting bugs to:
   
   efs-bugs@cuckoo.hpl.hp.com
------------------------------------------------------------

RET is bound to:

------------------------------------------------------------
dired-goto-file:
Goto file line of FILE in this dired buffer.
------------------------------------------------------------

you get prompted to enter a filename, and mark gets set at that
filename in the dired buffer. I'm not sure how useful/intuitive this
is, but that's how it is.

`f' gets you dired-advertised-find-file(). 

If/when efs gets bundled with XEmacs, will it's dired replace the
current one?
