I do an updated nedit version for several years now. It is based on latest CVS which is very slowly evolving and obsoletes most of the patches. I suggest to use this version instead of the current one.

Also it is bad style to link from an non-home-project to a home project. editors/nedit should be the base, not the other way round.

I checked all inbetween changes in the other packages today and I'm pretty sure that this version is more recent in every detail.
