 : true, but it is also the biggest... Personnaly, I prefer 'jed'

Not anymore.  Jed is now available from space.mit.edu in pub/davis/jed.  I
will probably release 0.97-9 this weekend.  The current version is 0.97-8.
The differences are:

   1. html syntax highlighting mode added.
   2. New functions: _autoload and _add_completion.  See function
      documentation.  Briefly, these permit slightly faster loading.
   3. Typos corrected in shell.sl and dired.sl.  
   4. Small correction for file name expansion under VMS.

This may be the last release in the 0.97 series.  I am going to start
working on 0.98.  My plans for 0.98 are:

   1. Some form of folding
   2. MS-Windows port
   3. Xjed will have menus, scroll bars, etc...
   4. Asynchronous process support
   5. Better HTML mode in the sense that HTML tokens can be hidden.
