You would need to use the set_status_line function along with the %p,
%l, and %c format specifiers.

Here is my setup:

set_status_line (" Jed %v: %O %b (%m%n) (%l %c) %p %t", 1);

Here's what it gives me.

Put "LINENUMBERS = 0;" in your .jedrc file:

set_status_line

 SYNOPSIS
  Customize the status line of the current window

 USAGE
  set_status_line (String format, Integer flag)

 DESCRIPTION
  This function may be used to customize the status line of the current
  window according to the string `format'.  If the second parameter
  `flag' is non-zero, `format' will apply to the global format string;
  otherwise it applies to current buffer only.  Newly created buffer
  inherit the global format string when they appear in a window.
  The format string may contain the following format specifiers:

        %b   buffer name

I _had_ that set to 0.  However, I didn't notice an:

#ifdef IBMPC_SYSTEM

block that otherwise set LINENUMBERS to 1.

What can I say?  I'm getting old and can't see for looking! Thanks a
bunch for your help and patience.

Unfortunately John, the above does not seem to work. I have:

define mail_hook ()
{
   mailedit_mode ();
   local_setkey ("mail_send", "^C^C");
   local_setkey ("mail_kill_buffer", "^Xk");
   variable SendMail_Cmd = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oem -odb -f
duke0fperl <at> ml1.net";
}

When you declare a variable inside a function, it becomes local to the
function.  The SendMail_Cmd and MailEdit_Reply_To commands need to be
made global:

  variable SendMail_Cmd = 
     "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -oem -odb -f duke0fperl <at> ml1.net";
  variable MailEdit_Reply_To = "dukeofperl <at> ml1.net";

  define mail_hook ()
  {
     mailedit_mode ();
     local_setkey ("mail_send", "^C^C");
     local_setkey ("mail_kill_buffer", "^Xk");
  }

How is Alpine calling jed?  Does it substitute "%s" by the name of the

redirecting rgrep output


I failed repeatedly getting the output of
jed's rgrep into a disk file. I issue from jed
a shell command like

     rgrep -l 'any' * > g_result.tmp

but the output goes to the shell-output buffer,
not to the specified disk file.

What am I doing wrong?

Are you running this on windows?  On windows, the only shell that is
universally available to interpret the command is is cmd.exe.  It gets
invoked via

   cmd.exe /c rgrep -l 'any' * > g_result.tmp

This is analogous to the Unix version, which is

   sh -c rgrep -l 'any' * > g_result.tmp

I believe that while `sh` understands the redirection operator,
`cmd.exe` does not when used this way.  You can test this hypothesis by
running the shell command

    echo rgrep -l 'any' * > g_result.tmp

If "rgrep -l 'any' * > g_result.tmp" appears in the buffer, then that
is the problem.

Ubuntu 8.10, text console. But I have now tried it
on Ubuntu 7.10 and it works. With one exception:

	rgrep -D * > d_result.tmp

gives

	grep: unknown devices method

while the same without redirection to a file also works.

The lesson seems to be: keep you fingers off Ubuntu
in the first 3 months after any release.

Thanks!
