Self Contained Leo Executable

I just tried making a self-contained Leo installer for Windows with PyInstaller. the executable failed with this error: File "leo\core\leoApp.py", line 1853, in reportDirectories g.es(f"{kind:>10}:", os.path.normpath(theDir), color='blue')

Re: New User's Guide To Leo

I think it's not too hard on Windows, but that installer wouldn't work on a Mac. Without actually having a Mac, I don't see how it would be possible. Linux is a whole other kettle of fish. It's only on Linux that I've ever had any trouble. On Windows, getting Leo going hasn't fought back for

Re: New User's Guide To Leo

Echo what @Paul said about an installer. I believe the biggest obstacle to higher adoption of Leo isn't how to `use` Leo`, but how to install it. Every time I need to install on a new machine, I dread it! Consider Picard , a music tagging application. It is a Pyt

Re: New User's Guide To Leo

Thanks! Partly I'm motivated by the experience of opening a new program, seeing the window, and not being able to do a thing. It's so frustrating! I've had that happen a few times too many, and I wouldn't want new Leo users to go through it. And partly because it's so hard to give non-Leois

Hi Thomas, This looks pretty good! Thanks for the document and the effort behind. The visual tour of what Leo is capable of is very compelling and a good showcase to new users about why to use Leo. Keep the good work, Offray On 7/05/23 23:56, Thomas Passin wrote: I've been thinking that the

Re: New User's Guide To Leo

I usually use @file w/ @language=tex for the xxx.tex files and Leo handles the comments appropriately. Works great! I also have created several standard templates for typical document types w/ all the special preamble commands. Rob... On Thursday, May 11, 2023 at 10:27:53 AM UTC-4 tbp1...@gmai

Texnic Center looks pretty good, at a quick glance. Do you write an @clean TeX document in Leo, then process it into LaTex with Texnic Center? On Thursday, May 11, 2023 at 10:09:07 AM UTC-4 Rob wrote: > I don't use Leo for that. I suppose I could, but I don't know how to > create a suitable sc

Re: New User's Guide To Leo

I don't use Leo for that. I suppose I could, but I don't know how to create a suitable script. I'm on Windows, so I use Texnic Center to create the documents (PDFs). It's easy enough and allows for projects w/ multiple related documents. Perhaps I could write up m

Re: two comma presses == no change?!

If, for some reason I might need 2 commas in succession, my workaround is to type `, ,` (inserted space between commas). Then I simply backspace and delete the space character. The only time I have actually done this is to document my abbreviations. HTH Rob... On Tuesday, May 9, 2023 at 7:18:5
