Here's an **intermediate** status report, which show very nicely how difficult it is to create correct & precise documentation. TL;DR : I ran into unforseen problems, since I don't use theWindows Command Prompt but use PowerShell as my default console in Windows. Longer version of the story: I tried to follow your instructions as closely as possible: :: Assumes **Python 3.6+** is installed and in PATH. Installing from source code into a new environment must be done in discrete steps: **download**, **unpack archive**, and **install as editable** mode. Example:: wget https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/archive/devel.zip 7z x devel.zip -o C:\apps pip install --editable C:\apps\leo-editor-devel Here are the steps that I performed: 1) Create & activate a new PyVE. - OK. - See "Log-001" 2) Download & install wget. - Not OK. - See "Log-002" 3) It looks like you don't even have to install 'wget' if you are a PS user. - Partially OK. - See "Log-003" I'll only publish Log-002 & Log-003 here, since they contain the interesting content ... Now I'll continue to try to get a version of the Leo Developement Branch in a new Python Virtual Environment (PyVE) working without the need to use git as a Leo User ... With kind regards, Viktor ### <Log-002> * Verify availability of 'wget' in the PyVE - No OK. - See below: :: Windows PowerShell Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. Alle Rechte vorbehalten.
