Devel doesnt work for me neither. I switched to commit f85c47489eb7dc769b73370d1d8b7abd9b9f6028 from devel in the meantime -- Félix On Tuesday, January 11, 2022 at 7:19:14 PM UTC-5 tbp1...@gmail.com wrote: > Upstream means the original repo, the Leo-editor repo on Github in this > case.

I can picture it: you start to work on some cool project, and of course you will want to use Leo. Right away, you find that you want to enhance Leo to work better on your new project-specific things! On Tuesday, January 11, 2022 at 8:15:51 AM UTC-5 Edward K. Ream wrote: > For several years

Upstream means the original repo, the Leo-editor repo on Github in this case. Origin means one's own clone, if any. *Upstream* and *Origin* are standard terms. Git Extensions is a Windows program, nothing to do with Python or anaconda, which I find easier to work with than just git itself

Not sure I understand that (what does `Upstream` mean?). I don't know about Git Extensions on Windows (I'm in an Anaconda environment, in case that matters). I'm not pulling from Origin. When I switch back to the devel branch, I get the same error and when I switch again to master, Leo starts

I use Git Extensions on Windows, and after checking out devel, ran the *Pull/Fetch* command, which I imagine is (behind the scene) the same command as what you did. You do have to make sure you are pulling from Upstream (the Leo git repo) and not Origin (your clone, if you've got one). I

I switched to the `Master` branch in GitHub for Windows and `fetched`. Leo opens as before showing Leo 6.6b1, master branch, build 383d6776d1. I guess problem solved, just not sure why the devel branch doesn't work, though. Rob... On Tuesday, January 11, 2022 at 5:40:16 PM UTC-5 Rob wrote: >

Hmm, how did you 'fetch' it? I did what I always do, from my repo CLI, I type `git pull` and update my devel branch. I also tried 'fetching' using GitHub for Windows. What else should I try? Rob... On Tuesday, January 11, 2022 at 5:36:31 PM UTC-5 tbp1...@gmail.com wrote: > I got that too, but

I got that too, but it turned out that it wasn't the latest devel branch, but only the latest zip of 6.6b1 that Github was offering. When I fetched the actual latest using git yesterday (not the zip file), which was some version of 6.6b2, that error had gone away. On Tuesday, January 11, 2022

After pulling in the latest devel branch, I get this: ~~~ 'type' object is not subscriptable *** Leo could not be started *** Please verify you've installed the required dependencies: https://leoeditor.com/installing.html ~~~ Before posting as an issue on GitHub, anyone else seeing this or know

Yes, I think you will need to know the schema of the JSON files to be able to import them in a useful way.. For example, Jupyter notebooks are JSON files, but your files are probably very different. Leo can import XML files, but they are imported into a single Leo node. On Tuesday, January

Re: generic JSON importer fails

I'll have a look. All I wanted to do for now is edit some already existing JSON files. I think all the @auto should always behave essentially the same way, and that means for me that I can use it to read in any arbitrary file, not just one that was created by Leo. I was using @clean already,

With the latest devel version, I see you've removed the "File as" wording, thank you very much. I think that more improvement can be made, though. 1. *Save As XML* would be better as *Save as .leo (XML)*. Many users will not realize that a .leo file is an XML file. 2. *Save As Zipped* is

For several years (at least) I have been worrying about what to do when Leo is complete. Aha: just look for *already-existing* open source projects that interest me. Amazingly obvious in retrospect! This isn't the 1980's, where research meant xeroxing articles in the University of Wisconsin
