I did rebuild it for brief testing and updated my silly build .BAT the other day, but so far I've not bundled a .ZIP just yet. It probably won't be too hard to do, but I'm a bit leery about what to include, specifically. ("find . -type f -mtime -3" is usually what I'd do, after "rm .../*.o" of course.)

EDIT: Actually, I found folding mode interesting (can be automatically loaded via mode line "/* -*- mode: C; mode: fold -*- */" and "Fold_Mode_Ok=1;" in jed.rc) via "/*{{{ boring func */" and "/*}}}*/". And of course the mouse works well too (left for copy, middle for paste, right for cut).

This is my makedist.bat from 2007:
