Correct.  It may also be worth pointing out that recent versions of
jed support a --help option:

#jed --help
Jed usage forms:

0.  jed [--version | --help]
1.  jed [--batch] [-n] [-e emulation] [-a alt-jedrc-file] \
        [file ...] \            % edit files
        [-g linenumber] \       % goto line
        [-s search-string] \    % performa search
        [-l file-to-load] \     % load slang file
        [-f function] \         % execute function
        [-i file-to-insert] \   % insert file
        [-2] \                  % split window
        [-tmp] \                % do not backup buffer
        [-hook funct (argv)] \  % exec funct with rest of argv parameters
        [--ANYTHING]            % execute ANYTHING as a function

2.  jed -script FILE [arg ...]

3.  jed-script FILE [arg ...]
        This form sets __argv[0] to FILE, __argv[1] to arg, ...
