I brought forward the model used by calibre as a possible way forward for
Leo installations for novice users. I reiterate that this provides a
one-click installer and an application that will work out of the box, every
time with all features fully enabled instead of expecting novices to hunt
down the spell checker, the rst to html exports etc. etc.
2c that are worth 5c today ;-)
I think there is general agreement here that this would be a (very) good
thing. The problem is in how to achieve it. Packaging is hard, and there's
isn't anyone about who knows how to do it well (though Davy seems to have a
good handle for Debian/Ubuntu). I've spent at least 30 or 40 hours on
various Windows install and packaging methods, and came up with a really
good recipe for people like me, but that's a pretty small class of users!
;-)
...
Rereading the above I sound like I'm complaining about you complaining, but
that's not the intended message. It's good to have the theme reiterated
from time to time.
cheers,
and a Merry/Happy Christmas to all,
Matt
