Here's my recommendation for installing jed and third party library
files, if nothing else at least perhaps it will contribute to confusing
you even more ;-)

1) set the environment variable JED_ROOT to $HOME/.jed
   When you install jed with "make install", all the *.sl files 
   under the ../lib subdirectory will be installed under
   $HOME/.jed/lib.
   
   Remember to reload your .bashrc for the environment variable to take
   effect. Type "echo $JED_ROOT" to see that it is ok.
   
2) Compile and install Jed.

3) Create a subdirectory $JED_ROOT/contrib

4) Copy whatever third party jed library files you're interested in, such
   as the ones from the Jed Modes Repository into $JED_ROOT/contrib
   
5) Edit your $HOME/.jedrc to contain these lines
  
   set_jed_library_path (JED_ROOT + "/contrib" + "," +
                         get_jed_library_path ());
                      
Jed will now look in both $JED_ROOT/lib and $JED_ROOT/contrib for its
function libraries and load e.g. the ispell.sl in the /contrib directory
instead of the one in the /lib directory, and this way you have the
original ones that are distributed with Jed nicely separated from the
contributed ones so they won't get overwritten when upgrading etc. Having
the libraries under $HOME is just for convenience, so you don't need
superuser privileges for working with them.
