First of all, that's already there if you 

cp /usr/share/jed/lib/jed.rc /home/yourusername/.jedrc

And all you do is uncomment it, _BUT_

Here is the line from the file
%For Wordstar like bindings, comment out EDT and Emacs lines and
%uncomment Wordstar line.  A similar statement applies for BRIEF,
%and for Borland IDE-like bindings.
%
I am not sure if Brief will work even if you commnt out EDT and Emacs lines and
uncomment the Brief line, because it says" MSDOS only !!"

For an editor I can customize to other keybindings, I generally reach for joe.  For
quick edits or where memory or space is at a premium, I use jed for its emacs-like 
capabilities, where others might try vim.

%
%  () = evalfile("emacs");   % Emacs-like bindings
%  () = evalfile("edt"); % EDT emulation
%  () = evalfile ("ide");% Borland IDE (see also doc/ide-mode.txt) $
%  () = evalfile ("brief");  % Brief Keybindings (MSDOS only!!)
%  () = evalfile("wordstar");% obsolete --- use ide instead)
%  () = evalfile ("cua");% CUA-like key bindings
%  Note: For EDT emulation, jed386.exe requires that the GOLD.COM TSR
%be loaded.  This TSR is available from space.mit.edu:/pub/davis/jed.

First copy the /usr/share/jed/lib/jed.rc file to ~/.jedrc
then edit it.

I usually use the WordStar/Borland type bindings, and according to the 
comments in the jed.rc file, the brief bindings are only available in 
MSDOS.

[newbie] anybody use jed?

2001-08-17 Thread Mark Johnson

I'm trying to use jed with brief emulation.  I added this to my .jedrc file:

 () = evalfile ("brief");

but it doesn't seem to take...  any suggestions?
