I must have misinterpreted "remove the file reference from the tree
produced by @auto" -- I thought this meant I could manually remove it
outside of Leo (like, using an editor), and all would be well. I just
didn't know how to go about removing it. Since you quoted both of my
questions in your reply, and I know #2 requires a program change, I
guess this means #1 does as well.

Your suggestion is certainly reasonable, and I've been around open
source projects long enough to know that sometimes the only way an
enhancement would get done is if I do it myself. I get that.

I've been studying the Leo code when I run into problems. It's way
over my head. :D After looking at it for hours, reading some of the
detail code discussions (fascinating, but also way over my head), and
reading in other threads about how fragile some Leo code sections are,
I'm too intimidated to try to make significant changes on my own.

I'm reluctant to ask for feature enhancements. I know that some
changes users request might be incredibly simple to implement, so I'd
rather ask in case it is something easy, rather than suffer in
silence. :D
