- Subject: [jed-users] Do not bind backquote to quoted_insert by default

Dear JED developers,
In the Debian package for JED, we are applying the patch attached to this
message, which comment out the binding of the backquote (`) key to
quoted_insert.
This is confusing for new users, who do not know how to configure JED. At
any rate, in Debian, JED starts in Emacs emulation, in which the
quoted_insert function is bound to ^Q.
For more context, please see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=765373
Please, consider integrating this change, or another sensible solution,
in the next release tarball.
Best,
Rafael Laboissière
Description: Backquote key simply inserts backquote char
This is a Debian-specific change. Do not bind the backquote (`) key to
quoted_insert. This is confusing for new users, who do not know how
to configure JED. At any rate, in Debian, JED starts in Emacs emulation,
in which the quoted_insert function is bound to ^Q.
