A problem I had/have with that patch from Phillip Vandry is that my working
code version had already moved on to the extent I couldn't get around to
working in his patch details line-by-line. My own version has a few
extensions which I find useful.

Could you send me the fully patched sources for xjdfrontend.c and xjdic.1?
What'd like to do it re-insert my updates and release a 2.5. In fact I'd
really like to put it somewhere (sourceforge?) where you and others can
modify it without version hassles. Hopefully someone will do a proper
configure/make for it.

I use it a lot, but I've moved on from writing this sort of thing, and I'm
happy to hand over.

Cheers

Jim
