I install leo in /usr/local, owned by and writable only by root. With
the current settings as leo gets distributed, attempting to execute a
script tries to write it to the file /usr/local/lib/leo/test/
scriptFile.py - which worked as long as I owned that directory.
That's not good practice in a multiuser environment. I've made the
following changes so that scripts work "out of the box":
(*) In /usr/local/lib/leo/config/leoSettings.leo, I have
@string script_file_path = scriptFile.py
instead of "../test/scriptFile.py"
(*) I've made the following code change:

You might also note in that branch an "install" shell script that
works for me in RHEL and Fedora.
