OK, I understand your concern now.
There are two completely separate things: the Dabo framework, and
all the stuff we built with the Dabo framework. The framework needs
to be installed in site-packages, either directly or indirectly
through the use of a 'dabo.pth' file. This way Python knows what you
mean when your code says 'import dabo'.
The demo and ide directories should *not* go in site-packages. They
are a collection of apps built with Dabo for you to either learn
about Dabo (demo), or work with it (ide). They should be installed
somewhere that is convenient for you - it really doesn't matter.
I'll update the installation pages on the Wiki to make this clearer.
BTW, even though the demo stuff is designed to help you explore what
Dabo can do, I think that the ide stuff, especially the Class
Designer, is also an excellent example of what you can build with
Dabo. There is nothing in there that isn't straight Dabo code, so if
you want to dig deeper into a much more complex example of how to
program using Dabo, that's another excellent choice.
