Hi Brad!

Glad you like it!

Knowing that other people understand and use what i'm doing is a great 
motivator and a pleasant experience! So thank you for taking the time to 
report your usage of leoInteg!

Well for some, (I think Ar-jan made it work seamlessly under 
conda/anaconda, see 
https://github.com/boltex/leointeg/issues/10#issuecomment-654665776 ) it 
feels 'seamless' if you've configured the python command line option to 
start the server and connect automatically... I guess I could start the 
leoInteg extension all the time even if there's no .leo file in the current 
workspace... (there's many little details that could be fined tuned to 
offer a more pleasant experience) 

But I guess actually it depends what you mean exactly by 'seamless' and 
'open a leo file'. 

And with that, I'm inviting you to describe what the user experience would 
be in your mind, the best or nicest way to more fully integrate the 'open a 
leo file' and seamless concepts, in a detailed and precise way. 

People who take the time to describe very precisely how a feature could (or 
should) be experienced and implemented sometimes make a project move along 
faster than people who submit actual code!

Thanks again and don't hesitate to address any issues at all :)
