Dear Rafael,

browsing the pkg-jed SVN files, I came across the 50_emacs-bindings patch
and wondered whether we could do without it for 2 reasons:

* jed loads emacs emulation by default anyway, via the configurable

     public variable _Jed_Default_Emulation = "emacs";

  in site.sl

* it changes JED_ROOT/lib/jed.rc, that should not be evaluated. (As we do
  our configuration in jed.conf and jed-init.d.)

----------------------------------


Feature request: Set the _Jed_Default_Emulation in jed.conf with debconf

Not all jed users prefer emacs, offering a choice right from the start
makes it clear that jed is more than just an emacs clone.

   Jed Default Emulation
   ---------------------

   Choose the keybinding scheme that jed should use by default
   (users can override this in their .jedrc file)

   [x]  emacs        % Emacs-like bindings
   [ ]  cua          % CUA bindings (KDE/Gnome like)
   [ ]  edt          % EDT emulation
   [ ]  ide          % Borland IDE emulation
   [ ]  native jed   % Native JED bindings

With jed-extra installed, there are also

   [ ]  brief        % Brief keybindings
   [ ]  vi           % VI emulation
