I've attached the /etc/jed.conf (which John made, coincidentally).  You can
drop almost arbitrary .sl files in /etc/jed-init.d.  I've attached one which
does debian specific customisation as well as a short README describing the
startup scheme.  

Keep in mind that a user's .jedrc (or global jed.rc) can still override any
of these settings.

JED startup strategy
--------------------

JED has now a new 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/
    
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/.

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)
    - /usr/share/jed/lib/jed.rc (only if $HOME/.jedrc doesn't exist)
   command_line_options
   ....
