Leo's tutorial, reference and cheat sheet have been thinly disguised encyclopedias. Very dry. Soporific. Contrast this with the Code Academy. The "lectures" deal with solving real problems. Shorter code, more useful. Exciting, maybe. This would be a good model for a rewritten tutorial.

Hi Terry (and others), I see the script is from a while back, so perhaps something has changed in the core which is causing an error for me. When I run it, I get this error... exception executing script AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'in_qt_dialog'

Thank you, Edward. It was very encouraging to have you on the call, and the direction around uA's is very exciting.I agree that bringing some of the really powerful Leo capabilities within "practical" reach of new Leo users will generate tremendous utility. -Richard On Thursday,

Wow! That's a really good direction about Leo. I used it mostly to outline/write complex documents and never went into the programming part (that was made with the interactive capabilities of IPython notebook). So seeing this approach to solving "real problems", the ones of every day, opens a

Perfect, that's how I approach any new body of technical knowledge, i.e. 'How does this help me solve a problem or accomplish some task?' It's harder when I have to wade through tons of seemingly irrelevant stuff to get to something that answers that question. At my age and situation (starting

Thanks, guys. I downloaded the latest .zip folder and have the latest Leo working. I'll need to explore git further, as it looks like it would allow me to stay current more efficiently than the .zip download.I'm glad to know about both options. -Richard On Saturday, January 30, 2016 at
