Thank you very much. Your way to exclude only some disturbing files seems much 
better to me.

But I fail to exclude in Emacs 24.3 under Windows 7 lines in recentf like 
this:

c:/Users/aw/AppData/Local/Temp/diary1234ABc

The filename is always "diary" + 4 digits + letters (2-4 letters)

So I wrote:

 (setq recentf-exclude '(
   "/diary[0-9]\{4\}[a-zA-Z]\{2,4\}$"
))

but without success, all the lines of my temp-diaries still appear in recentf.

Probably I should start the regex with something different than "/", but I 
tried everything I could think of, e.g. "\\", 
"c:/Users/aw/AppData/Local/Temp/", without "$" at the end...

As I'm running out of ideas, maybe you could give me a hint again.

Regards,

Alexander
