Let me add a little clarification here. When Edward writes " Installing git is no more difficult than installing any other program.", he meant but didn't say that you need to install the *git* program on your computer before following his steps.
After you have gotten the latest version - in Step 7 - then you need to use it when you run Leo. Probably the easiest way is to change your directory to your new git/leo-editor/leo directory if you are not already there. Then run Leo: python3 core\runLeo.py On your system, Python 3 may have a different name, possibly just python, or something like python3.8. On Sunday, February 21, 2021 at 4:51:48 AM UTC-5 Edward K.
