Agreed! Jed is an excellent small emacs. It comes installed on Slackware by default, and it was on my short list to include here, but I eventually decided against it for some trivial reasons (its size footprint fills the same "slot" as Jove, but its list of linked libs matches Zile, so for the purposes of this list it felt redundant in two separate ways).

I do intend to cover it in detail in a future article of its own!

Great point, of course. GNU Emacs makes it really difficult to invent scenarios where it can't fix a problem!
