I have just spent a couple hours trying to automatically import a folder 
with all its sub-folders and python files into Leo, and i couldnt.

My aim is to drop a folder into Leo (a @path node appears with the folder 
path) then recursively load all its files as @auto or any other filesistem 
that will allow me to edit them without inserting sentinels. ( since this 
is one of the first steps a programmer interested in leo would want to 
take, the default command to do this shouldnt use sentinels or edit the 
imported files)

I got as far as enabling (as per recent suggestions on another post) the 
activepath plugin, then I could recursively have a list of files, but only 
names, no file will be imported.

There is no command in Leo (out of the box) to recursively import a folder. 
There is no related command in the menu/cmds/Files and directories.
There is no guide on Leo documentation on how to do this.
I found some older post talking about a leo script within it scripts 
folder, but dont know how to call those from a Leo file.

So I really think it would be great to have a video on how to import-export 
files from/to leo, not only because I really want to use that Leo feature, 
but because there is no "File" tutorial yet and whenever any new user 
comes, the first thing he will want to do is to import his files to Leo!! I 
really think plugins should not be required in order to do so btw.

Sorry for the unorganized post, just wanted to share the thought, Im back 
to keep trying.
