Hi,

should we react on this? Should we make xjed a replacement of jed? Should
we add a comment to the description of the xjed package?

It was written to reuse as much code as possible.  As a result, Xjed =3D
jed + Xlib-specific code.  The Xlib-specific code is used only when
the DISPLAY variable is set.  In fact, if you have built and installed
Xjed, then the jed executable can probably be replaced by a shell script:

   #!/bin/sh
   unset DISPLAY
   exec /usr/bin/xjed $*

I have not tested this though.
