I just downloaded the latest version of the Literate Editor with Outlines (Leo), which is Python-based. To my horror, the installation notes say that "Leo works reliably only on MacOS X 10.3 (Panther)"! I'm having a hard time
accepting this, since my machine (a PowerPC iBook) runs on 10.4.11.
Does anyone know if there is a work-around that will force Leo to play nicely with Tiger? A possible hint is that the installation notes would have me install "MacPython 2.3 for Panther add-ons" and TclTkAqua first
before actually installing Leo.


AFAIK, you should be able to simply download Leo and run "python leo.py." It's a Python-Tk-based application, and OS X (10.4 and 10.5) comes with both. Have you tried this?

I just installed it under OS X 10.4.11 from the latest zipped sources from the install script with no difficulty. You'll need Pmw installed for the preferences as well as Aqua-Tk which isn't difficult. IIRC has now been updated to install with setup.py rather than just dropping it into the site-packages directory.
Which unlike other unices is under
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/lib/
not
/usr/local/lib
