Problems & Questions

[V01D <phreakuencies@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
  I've been using this editor for a while, and I always find a rough 
edge that needs to be tweaked to my liking. But other times there are 
things that I consider bugs in the .sl files. I've been accumulating a 
list of issues that I would like to change/fix but I can't seem to. 
Anyone could tell me if any of these are really bugs? And how could I 
change what I need in each item?
Here's the list:
- Select menus by using space (' '), not by using ENTER (is this 
hardcoded into the jed binary? I can't find any binding to ENTER key)
- The backtick '`' seems to work only when I press the key twice (If I 
disable mute keys, the normal tick ('´') gets printed when I press the 
key at once. Show key tells me that ` has the "quoted_insert" binding.
I'd wish to print the backtick with one keypress.
- In perlmode the Indentation seems to work incorrectly. When doing 
something like:
sub bleh() {
  bleh();
  }
the final brace is always indented (which is really annoying). I tried 
setting Perl_Indent and Perl_Continued_Offset but the indentation stays 
exactly the same. I'm suspicious about a wierd behavior regarding these 
"custom_variable"s. In the cmode hook I just write 'C_INDENT=2;' and it 
works fine. But with perl_mode_hook I have to use 'variable Perl_Indent 
= 2;' because just doing 'Perl_Indent = 2;' makes jed complain about an 
undefined variable. I think that using 'variable' declares a local var, 
therefore the problem. Is there a fix for this?
- When I switch buffers the cursor gets centered (and the buffer scrolls 
with it). How can I make the buffer and cursor stay right where I left 
it after switching?
- How can I use a transparent color? If I use the nano editor, for 
example, from within mrxvt console, with transparency on, I can see my 
fluxbox background. The only program that inhibits this transparency is 
jed. Don't know why.
- Is there a way to align to the right the time display on the status bar?
- Is there a redo on jed?

Thank you
