Thanks for your patience, Thomas. At last I understand your complaint. A
straightforward fix should be possible.
Leo stores layouts in the cache, with path names as keys. Rather than using
an empty ("") key for new files, which fails *later *as you explain above,
new files should default, imo, to the layout of the first loaded .leo
file. By default, this will be workbook.leo when a user opens Leo without
any file arguments.
I'll work on this next. With luck, the new code should be no more complex
than the old. It might even be simpler.
