I've been thinking that there should be a book on Leo. I don't think I've got another book left in me, but I'm not completely happy with the existing docs because I don't think they really match what a new user faces when trying to fire up Leo and use it the first few times. (Also, I don't know that a publisher would be interested because the number of potential readers might seem too small).
So I am working on a guide for new users. It's a Sphinx document, created, of course, in Leo. It's at a very early stage so far, but I've put it up on my server so people can see it and make suggestions. I've included the "elevator speech" for Leo that I posted in an earlier Groups thread. One of the things that might be of the most interest at this point is the group of screenshots that I've labeled "Leo In Action". They illustrate Leo being used for some of the kinds of tasks I've listed in an earlier section. Please take a look and let me know what you think, bearing in mind that it's a *very* preliminary and incomplete draft. New User's Guide To Leo <http://tompassin.net/leo/guide/docs/using-leo.html> PS - If anyone else wants to try writing a Leo book, I'm a good technical and general editor. I'd be glad to help out in that way. PPS - Some of the screen shots are of a fresh install on a Linux virtual machine. I'm running Windows 10, and I captured the Linux screen shots using a *Windows* screenshot utility, then converted them to png files with Windows Paint. This was easier than trying to use a Linux screen capture utility in the VM, converting it into a png file, and then transferring it over to the Windows host. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
