This is the best news about Leo that I have read in some time. It arrives 
as I was preparing to write you to ask for detailed instructions for 
rolling my own PyInstaller versions for Windows and OS X. 

I expect that I am a minority among the community of Leo users, because 
following the Leo documentation and using full-blown installations of 
CPython, Qt and Leo isn't an option for me on Windows 7 or on OS X. I have 
to leave IronPython as the default Python on my Windows machine because it 
is the scripting engine for applications I user for work, and I don't have 
source code for those or the ability to configure them to ignore a 
secondary Python. I log in without Admin rights to the Mac I use, and I 
have multiple log-ins, which means that Homebrew is not useful.
