Hi,
My plan all along has been to provide incremental parsing of source as it
is entered. Originally I was going to use a parser running as a process
external to Emacs. However, the advent of Eric Ludlam's semantic package
raised the possibility of doing the parsing in Lisp during idle time. The
initial release of semantic did not support incremental parsing. However,
Eric had been planning to provide incremental parsing support. So I have
been waiting for that support. I believe the upcoming 1.4 release, which is
in beta, supports incremental parsing. If that is true, it should be
possible to add incremental parsing support to the JDE (as an option) in
the very near future.
