Congratulations.

I got a patch to the version 1.2.5 from
  http://profs.sci.univr.it/~gonzato/jed/index.html
adding eps to the output options. You might find this handy, e.g. to process
gnuplot pslatex output for inclusion in your document as eps.

It also changes the 
   define latex_mode 
to
   public define latex_mode 
a convention that allows automatic insertion to the commands-to-autoload
by a script.


Moreover I have some ideas for further improvements/simplifications
(mostly inspired from the way LyX works):

Highlight for comment environment?

* Run Latex twice (thrice) if labels may have changed.

* Run bibtex automatically and Latex again, if there are undefined references.

* Update/Create the dvi/ps/pdf file from tex if not present when
  Viewing/Printing

* An extra file for the templates (maybe one for all types). Consider using
  templates.sl for this task.
