Good to know.  Thanks.

I also found that filelist.sl (which I downloaded from Jed modes on
11/22/04) produces this message.  In a separate message Paul
Boekholt <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx> mentioned that
enable_dfa_syntax_for_mode() leaves something on the stack.  His
hint made fixing filelist.sl easy.  Perhaps John Davis will make a
change to enable_dfa_syntax_for_mode().  Or, here is a patch:

Hmm. I added Both CASE_SEARCH_DEAULT and CASE_SEARCH are zero, but when I
search for "def", it does not find "Def".

And, the problem seems to be below the level of isearch.sl.  I
tried:

    ^X ESC fsearch("def");

and it does not find "Def".  Next step, look at the source code for
fsearch().  But, if no one else has noticed this, then maybe it's
something wrong in my .jedrc.  I'll try the default jed.rc in the
distribution.

...

Nope.  I replaced my .jedrc with jed.rc from the distribution. 
Search is still case sensitive.  I'll look at the source for
fsearch() later.

You're welcome.  And, thanks for a great editor.
