Maybe I've said it a little bit wrong. I've thought of help.sl for
exmaple. jed-modes is no longer an add‐on or complement, it's a
replacement. jed-modes moved on and is for some pieces much better on
providing default functionality. There is really code that should be part
of the main distribution, because it's sometimes hard to integrate it
later—adding a new help shortcut ^Hp or thelike.

Bye, Jörg.
