How about also installing the enhancements provided by dired-details+.el?
The frame-fitting enhancement need not be applied, since Emacs does not yet
have my frame-fitting code. But I think some of the other enhancements could
be integrated. They are:
1. Update the hide/show overlays automatically whenever you create new files
or directories or rename existing files or directories. This means tweaking
the definitions of `dired-byte-compile', `dired-compress',
`dired-create-files' and `dired-create-directory' (instead of advising
them).
2. Provide a user option, `dired-details-propagate-flag' which, if non-nil,
propagates the last hide/show state you chose to the next Dired buffer you
open.
I also recommend:
1. Binding the toggle command to a key, such as `)'.
2. Using "" as the default value of `dired-details-hidden-string', to save
screen real estate.
