 JED startup strategy
 --------------------
 
-JED has now a new startup setup that will make easier for packages providing
+JED on Debian has startup setup that will make easier for packages providing
 add-on support to get their code automatically loaded in a site-wide manner.
-We have the following startup files/directories:
-
-    /etc/jed.conf
-    /etc/jed-init.d/
+Instead of a config file, we use a "jed.d" directory. At startup, JED will
+evaluate all "*.sl" scripts in /etc/jed.d/.
     
-Each add-on package has the right to place files into the directory
-/etc/jed-init.d/, with names like ??whatever.sl, where "??" is a two-digit
-number.  jed.conf is a s-lang script which will be executed by jed at
-startup and will then evaluate all scripts in /etc/jed-init.d/.
+Each package has the right to place files into this directory, with names
+like NNwhatever.sl, where "NN" is a two-digit number. The order in which the
+files in /etc/jed-init.d/ will be parsed is alphabetical following their
+filenames, i.e. files with name starting with "00" will be loaded first and
+with "99" last.
 
-The order in which the files in /etc/jed-init.d/ will be parsed is
-alphabetical following their filenames, i.e. files with name starting with
-"00" will be loaded first and with "99" last.
-
 The order of parsing of all JED config files is thus as follows:
    ...
    * /usr/share/jed/lib/site.sl
-    - this calls /usr/share/jed/lib/defaults.sl if it exists
-    - if defaults.sl does not exist, /etc/jed.conf is called 
-      - which in turn calls all .sl scripts in /etc/jed-init.d/
-   * If -n is not specified on the command line (as first arg):
-    - $HOME/.jedrc (if it exists)
-   command_line_options
-   ....
+   - no call to /usr/share/jed/lib/defaults.sl
+   - no call to /etc/jed.conf
+   * all *.sl scripts in /etc/jed.d/
+   * $HOME/.jedrc (if it exists, suppressed by the -n command line option)
+   * command_line_options
+   * files given on the command line
