emacs -Q Create a file named `grep.exe' in some directory. The file content is unimportant. Use `C-u C-x d' to visit the directory, and specify `-alF' as the listing switches. Put the cursor on the line of the file named `grep.exe', which is displayed as `grep.exe*' to show that it is executable. M-: (dired-get-filename) returns "/the/dir/to/grep.exe*" That is, the display artifact `*' is included as part of the file name. This is also a bug in Emacs 22.3. It is a regression from Emacs 21.3.1. In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2009-01-04 on LENNART-69DE564 Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600 configured using `configure --with-gcc (3.4) --no-opt --cflags -Ic:/g/include -fno-crossjumping'
