 Description: extended mind for John E. Davis' text editor jed
- Jedstate used to be some sort of an extended mind for John E. Davis'
- splendid text editor jed.  Its functionality has been superseded by
- the gdbmrecent module in the jed-extra package.  Therefore, this
- package is now just a transition package to help users migrate from
- their old jedstate database to a gdbmrecent one.  Once the migration
- is done, this package can be safely removed.
- .
- If you have never used jedstate before, this package is not for you.
- Install jed-extra instead.
+ Jedstate saves session data for John E. Davis' splendid text editor jed.
+ The original implementation is no longer maintained.
+ Its functionality has been superseded by the gdbmrecent module in the
+ jed-extra package.  This package is now a transition and compatibility
+ package to help users migrate from their old jedstate database to a
+ gdbmrecent one. It ensures the required package are present and evaluates
+ gdbmrecent.sl at Jed startup.
