documentation at Debian

[Günter Milde <milde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear jedies,

The Debian GNU/Linux system has a documentation storage policy that differs
from jed's default. The result is an "<undocumented>" response for almost all
online-help requests :-(

To cure this problem you need to
   * gunzip jedfuns.txt and libfuns.txt in /usr/share/doc/jed-common/txt/
     as well as /usr/share/doc/slang1/slangfun.txt
   * adjust Jed_Doc_Files e.g. by inserting
      variable Jed_Doc_Dir = "/usr/share/doc/jed-common/txt/";
      variable Jed_Doc_Files
        = Jed_Doc_Dir + "jedfuns.txt,"
        + Jed_Doc_Dir + "libfuns.txt,"
        + "/usr/share/doc/slang1/slangfun.txt";
     in .jedrc 
     or put the attached file into /etc/jed-init.d/
     
(Non-sysadmins could copy the needed files to e.g. ~/.jed/doc/txt/ and set
 Jed_Doc_Files accordingly.)

Also, the files in /usr/share/doc/jed-common/txt need to be gunzipped in
order to appear under Help>Browse_Docs.

It would be nice, if the Debian package could do all this automatically at
config time.
