+@noindent
+@dfn{Working directories} are directories where files have most
+recently been opened. The current directory is inserted at the front
+of this @code{ido-work-directory-list} whenever a file is opened with
+@code{ido-find-file} and other file-related functions.

+@defvr {User Option} ido-max-dir-file-cache
+This user option specifies maximum number of working directories to be
+cached. This is the size of the cache of
+@code{file-name-all-completions} results. Each cache entry is time
+stamped with the modification time of the directory. Some systems,
+like MS-Windows, have unreliable directory modification times, so you
+may choose to disable caching on such systems, or explicitly refresh
+the cache contents using the command @code{ido-reread-directory}
+(usually @kbd{C-l}) in the minibuffer.
