Nevermind. I figured out why this happened. Disregard my last
message... I must be blind.

Subject: JDE 2.2.6 Beta 7. Why does jde-parse (require 'senator)?
Apologies if someone's already brought this up.
I finally got around to installing beta 7... and just ran a byte compile
on jde-parse.el and it complains about senator not being there... which
it's not (yet) on my install.
I don't mind installing senator, in fact I still have version 1.5's zip that
David
Ponce sent out. I kept it in my inbox with the intent of installing it "any
day now".
But I think the real issue is: should JDE be dependent on an external
package, or can the following fail-safe be added to jde-parse.el to
avoid this error?
(if (load "senator" t)
)
around the section of the file that contains
(defadvice beginning-of-defun ... )
(defadvice end-of-defun ... )
Of course (require 'senator) would need to be removed too.
This way if folks don't have senator, jde-parse.el will still byte compile
and
work properly ;->
Or else make senator part of the official distro. I have no preference
either way.
Just a suggestion.
