Thank you Lewis. Unfortunately I do not know how to open this file in Leo. Maybe some day I'll figure it out. Somehow I fail to find instructions how to do the simple things: Open a file. Enable and use a plugin, or even a directive. I've tried some things but haven't got off the ground. It seems like programmers are born knowing the fundamentals. If there is a very simple, fundamental introduction to how to do the most basic and elementary of beginner's things in Leo, I have failed to find it.
