Good idea. There is a good place for it: quickstart.leo. It's accessible from the Help menu now. Simplifying it's *impact* on newbies makes a lot of sense. Ironically, the simplification would happen in (complex!) @settings in quickstart.leo itself. But newbies would not be aware of the irony ;-) Edward -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
