[Jed-users-l] JED: Shift-arrow to mark text

[Doug Kramer]

I see that cuamark.sl instructs me to use "require", so I added this
statement:

require("/home/doog/jed/cuamark.sl");

which loaded without error.  Running "jed", Shift-left/right does
*not* select the text.

However, xjed works fine.

I could not find documentation for either "evalfile" or "require" on
jedsoft.org, and am unsure of the difference.

When must evalfile be followed with "pop()"?  When do we assign it to
parens: '() = evalfile("cua")'?

thanks
-Doug
