A belated thanks, and there are 4 more unintended backslashes in the 
PIM/Using abbrev... documentation page.

This still not working for me, but I am not giving up yet.

In the leoSettings.leo node @data abbreviations-subst-env, it states 

> **Important**: scripting abbreviations are in effect only if the following
>
> settings are in effect::
>
>     
>
>     @bool enable-abbreviations = True
>
>     @bool abbreviations-subst-start = True
>
>
When I include the second bool in myLeoSettings, and restart leo, i get the 
following error repeated for each leo reading:

> warning: ignoring bool abbreviations-subst-start is not string
>
> there may be conflicting settings!
>

I copied that whole @data abbreviations-subst-env node into myLeoSettings. 
However, if I include the @language python in the body, I get the following 
errors when restarting leo:

>  

Traceback (most recent call last):


>   File 
> "E:\Users\Ross\Docume~1\Github\leo-editor\leo\core\leoEditCommands.py", 
> line 539, in init_env

    exec(result,c.abbrev_subst_env,c.abbrev_subst_env)


>   File "<string>", line 1


>     @language python

--------

The @data abbreviations-subst-env node contains a def for 'ask''.  Isn't 
this necessary in order to run the example 'def' abbreviation correctly?

When I use the 'def' example (i.e, I type in def;;), I do not get an 'ask' 
dialogue the way it shows in Terry's video, and the only replacement in 
effect is for 'return'.

-----

I still have the feeling that there are additional unknown settings I need 
in order for abbreviations to work properly.  
Maybe something in '@enabled plugins' ?  I have the following enabled:
leo_to_html.py
mod_scripting.py
nav_qt.py
quicksearch.py
stickynotes.py
todo.py
viewrendered.py
printing.py
bookmarks.py
free_layout.py

I am attaching myLeoSettings in case that helps.
