The search order is documented here: https://leoeditor.com/customizing.html#search-order-for-settings-files It states that the ones later in the list override settings in the earlier files. So I imagine it’ll do that! (This page was useful when I was trying to figure out how to make themes wor

2020-12-19 Thread tbp1...@gmail.com
The Help entry for settings says in part: " Put myLeoSettigns.leo in your home ~ directory or in the ~/.leo directory." It's a little obsolete because Leo will create this file for you (so the wording should be updated). But it got me wondering what would happen if somehow there were a myLeoS

We've heard from quite a few folks recently who have had trouble with themes and the appearances of Leo, especially new users. Many of them disliked the default dark template. None of them had any idea how to make changes and get the appearance more how they like. I suggest it's time for a n

I'm so glad you got it working. Leo 6.3 is better than the 5.x series, so that's good. You can also create a launch icon for your desktop, at least if it works the same way on your Debian system as on my Ubuntu and Mint ones. You create a text file in ~/Desktop. Here is mine - [Desktop Entr

When you tried to install using pip, it seems to have failed to install qt5 properly. Then when you copied the zip file, it would be trying to use that incomplete qt5 system. This might be behind the problem. You can disable themes in the latest versions (e.g., 6.3) by adding a setting to m
