Re: LeoInteg 1.0.8 released! Major bug fixes and features update!

[Félix]

There were problems with microsoft's server last night, so you might want 
to retry this.

Also, you can download the extension itself 
t https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=boltex.leointeg 
use the link on the right (see below "Download Extension") 
[image: Screenshot from 2022-09-28 20-37-43.png]
And then user the command palette Ctrl+shit+P for the command "install from 
vsix"

And then browse to the leointeg  VSIX extension file you've just downloaded 

Hope this helps for installing on VScodium! Please share a screenshot when 
using it under this editor if it works! I'd be amazed to see it!!

Thanks again for trying out LeoInteg and giving feedback!!!

Félix

Hi Felix
do you know if there are any issues in installing LeoInteg with VScodium
(https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium,build of VSCode without tracking etc. 
)?

I am very much a novice with VSCode/Vscodium; I tried CTRL+P and
"ext install boltex.leointeg", but get an error "Server returned 500"

I have successfully installed a couple of VSCode plugins to VSCode, but I
don't know how much can be assumed...

Thanks very much, J^n

Re: Leo deployment on Windows - past story, current story

[David Szent-Györgyi]

*On creating a shortcut to the .leo configuration directory. *This applies 
to Windows 10; I have yet to test it on Windows 11. 

To create a shortcut to the hidden "configuration directory" in one's home 
folder, configure File Explorer to show hidden files, right-click on the 
*.leo* folder in one's home folder, choose "Create Shortcut" from the 
context menu, then place the shortcut as needed, then configure File 
Explorer to not show hidden files. 

I am accustomed to creating shortcuts for backing up installed 
applications, including the folder that contains the application, the 
folder for housekeeping information that is shared by all users, and the 
folder for user-specific housekeeping information. For that, I typically 
create shortcuts to each of these folders, using Windows 10's File 
Explorer's context menu entry "New->Shortcut". That approach fails when 
creating shortcuts to a folder that (a) is in one's home folder and (b) has 
a name that begins with a dot, thereby calling for special treatment. For 
such a folder, "New->Shortcut" creates a shortcut that does not work. 

I make the shortcut to the *.leo* folder apply to every user by editing the 
shortcut's properties, and replacing the *C:\username* in the *Target* 
field with *%HOMEPATH% *. %HOMEPATH% is a Windows environment variable that 
is evaluated when the shortcut is used rather than at the time of its 
creation.

 Congratulations! vs-code updated leoInteg automagically. Everything looks 
good.

I am going to try leoInteg for my study of ocaml and mypy.
