Hi,

I just found Leo yesterday after looking for years - more than a decade, 
actually -for such a programming tool.

At least that is what I think I am looking at in Leo.

I see lots of video examples of using Leo to write outlines in general and 
even a few with snippets of code.  And I even saw the video showing how 
some examples of searching the large Leo codebase.  But I haven't yet found 
even one which shows, in straightforward fashion, how to begin developing a 
complete, stand alone program in Leo.  Is such a thing available?  I think 
it would help perhaps more than any other one tutelage effort.   If not, 
may I suggest that a few hours devoted to tutoring step-by-step in how to 
write a complete, interesting but simple python program in Leo might work 
wonders in getting the word out further?

Do I understand that Leo itself is written in -- or at least maintained now 
-- entirely in Leo?  If so, I would absolutely love tutoring on how to use 
the tool effectively in the context of learning how to handle the 
complexity of Leo maintenance.  I have some C background but little python 
experience.

Please keep me up to date on developments.  I think I could really get 
behind this project in time but right now I could mostly use some 
encouragement that this editor will help me manage the complexity of 
learning to program -- there are so many "tools" out there promising so 
much but requiring huge investments of time to even evaluate them 
properly.   BTW, am I correct that it wouldn't be too hard to get Leo to 
recognize racket (scheme) programs for purposes of maintaining indentation 
and bracket highlighting, etc (I see you have something for emacs lisp)?  
Is THAT tutoring available on video anywhere?
