Yes, clear! And I think most people will read it as you intended; I was 
just grasping at straws to figure out why the option wasn't getting set in 
Matt's file. 

Leo has a forest of settings, which makes it flexible, but also makes it 
hard to get all Leo's ducks in a row. This may require some technical 
vocabulary to explain things. For instance, "leo presets" would be anything 
set in myLeoSettings and/or leoSettings. "leo local settings": in the 
specific leo file.

I did get the intermediate files to work, by adding to the @rst node: 

@ @rst-options
write_intermediate_file = True
@c

And in myLeoSettings, under @settings (though I'm not sure that changed 
anything):

.. RST 
... @bool rst3_call_docutils = True 
... @bool rst3_write_intermediate_file = True 
... @string rst3_write_intermediate_extension = .txt 

It is sometimes unclear to me when @something should/can go in the headline 
or the body. 

@file: always in the headline
@c: always in the body
@bool: either?  

I'm guessing that you mean literally anywhere in @settings node here: 

Put the rst3_call_docutils setting in the @settings tree in the .leo file 
containing the @rst node. This setting determines whether to use plain rST 
markup or full sphinx markup. To use plain reStructuredText markup:

@bool rst3_call_docutils = True


Best,

Bill
