All this is a pretty low priority now...

A fundamental reason why there is little urgent need for scripting support 
in leoBridge is that scripts can always "borrow" code from Leo's core.  For 
instance, when fileName is known, c.saveTo is equivalent (ignoring gui 
issues that don't apply in leoBridge), to::

    fileName = g.ensure_extension(fileName, ".leo")
    c.fileCommands.saveTo(fileName)
    g.app.recentFilesManager.updateRecentFiles(fileName)
    g.chdir(fileName)

So, although official support for file-related operations in leoBridge 
would be nice, scripts that use leoBridge can always supply their own 
equivalent code.
