Thanks for the feedback! My mistake. Sudo comes with Gsudo, and I forgot I had done that. (`winget install gsudo`).
Installing Leo from Pypi on Py v3.12 will not work until next Leo release (see https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/pull/3612 and https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/3615) So that's also my mistake, since I specified 3.12 at the top. -matt On Sunday, October 15, 2023 at 9:27:08 p.m. UTC-7 tbp1...@gmail.com wrote: > sudo setx /M PIPX_BIN_DIR C:\bin > > Where did we get *sudo* from?
