So I just installed leo using the exe installer. Can you point me to the discussion where it was decided that all of the leo files should be installed under "Program Files" or on Windows 7 "Program Files (x86)". I've never seen this approach before for python programs. Why not install leo in its standard site-packages location and put a link .(exe, .cmd or .bat) in Program Files so that leo files are in a standard location?
