As a slight aside, if I had not edited the node bodies, would you have expected the directories to then be created upon a write? There seems to be some sort of cache logic going on, but I am a bit unsure. One thing I know. You have to save the outline to have the new @file saved. At that time the directories should get created if they don't already exist. Nothing is going to get created before the file is saved the first time. It doesn't need to have content, just to be saved. If you create an @path node but no file at the end of that path, Leo will see nothing to save and those directories aren't going to be created. I've just tested all these statements, BTW. If you created @path nodes and @file nodes in them, but "Revert To Saved" before saving the outline, Leo will reload the outline as it was and will not create those directories and @files - since you had not saved them first. This behavior makes sense to me. When you save an outline, Leo looks for any and all at-files (or probably it's just all dirty at-file nodes) and saves them. If it notices that there is one with non-existent directories, it knows it has to create them before that file can be saved. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
