What I meant was, first ask the user for a directory, then cycle through
the files and ask whether to move each file to that directory. The user
wouldn't specify the directory itself for each file. And with
`map-y-or-n-p', the user can just hit "!" to take care of all files.
Am I misunderstanding your concern? The only time the ID attachment
directory scheme (which is indeed opaque) would come into play is when
the command was called with a prefix argument -- ie, when removing a
custom directory, and reverting to the automatic directory. In that
case, the directory would be automatically derived, and the user would
simply be presented with the choice to move each file there, or not.
Hopefully this is a misunderstanding,
E
