+** dired
+Dired is a file manager mode built in to emacs.
+
+Emacs' philosophy is to create a new buffer for new content. This makes sense
+for an editor but a file manager usually reuses it's window as you browse the
+file system. This reverts dired to that behavior, but doesn't fix it if you use
+the mouse to click a directory or filename.
