Subject: 24.3.50; file missing in dired

From: Richard Stallman <[email-masked]>

In my dired buffer on the whole directory `outgoing', the lock file
`.#out-3' does not appear.  I typed g a couple of times, and that file
continues not to show up.

`ls -a' does show it.

I looked at the buffer `out-3', but it was not modified, so I don't
know why it had a lock file.
