Hi Matt, I'm testing the pip3 install leo process. I prepared my system, simulating a new system with a pip uninstall for both PyQt5 and docutils from my python folder, then: > pip3 install leo
It seems to be a developers version of Leo and certainly installed all the required packages. Here is the tail end of the install log: [snip] Installing collected packages: pyflakes, requests-toolbelt, pkginfo, tqdm, twine, docutils, pywin32-ctypes, keyring, babel, imagesize, snowballstemmer, sphinxcontrib-websupport, alabaster, sphinx, pypandoc, PyQt5, leo Successfully installed PyQt5-5.9.2 alabaster-0.7.10 babel-2.5.1 docutils-0.14 imagesize-0.7.1 keyring-10.5.0 leo-5.7.dev406 pkginfo-1.4.1 pyflakes-1.6.0 pypandoc-1.4 pywin32-ctypes-0.1.2 requests-toolbelt-0.8.0 snowballstemmer-1.2.1 sphinx-1.6.5 sphinxcontrib-websupport-1.0.1 tqdm-4.19.5 twine-1.9.1 c:\~\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36> So I just typed leo at my ConsoleZ window and Leo appears! That’s great. I did begin to wonder if anything was working though, so maybe it would be nice for users to have a simple feedback message like ‘starting leo’ even if just a glimpse. Ah, now I understand what leoc is for. I'll add some notes about the log in console feature. "LaunchLeo.py is not needed at all after installing with pip." And it doesn't work; so I won't refer to it in the pip install instructions. Here is leo log: Leo Log Window Leo 5.6, build 20171213015234, Wed Dec 13 01:52:34 CST 2017 Git repo info: branch = master, commit = a5e1e740e704 Python 3.6.4, PyQt version 5.9.3 Does the build match what you would expect installing from the pypi release?
