Extra font lock rules for a more colourful dired
This is adapted from the extra font lock rules provided by Drew Adams'
dired+ package, but published via a modern means, and with support
for older Emacsen removed.
Installation
If you're an Emacs 24 user or you have a recent version of
package.el you can install diredfl from the
MELPA repository. The version of diredfl there
will always be up-to-date.
Enable diredfl-mode in all dired-mode buffers by calling or
customising diredfl-global-mode as desired.

contains some enhanced font-lock support for dired, but with
different goals from this package.
