subject:"Installing Leo"

Wayland is a more modern, very incompatible replacement for X11, the 
venerable display server used by Linux systems. It uses a different 
communication protocol. Little by little, Wayland is becoming adopted by 
various distros, not always without problems.  Virtualbox, for example,  
has problems with guest VMs that use Wayland.  To confuse matter more, I've 
seen libraries whose name sounds like they convert X11 commands to Wayland 
commands, presumably so that non-Wayland software can run using Wayland to 
actually create the display.

Since Ubuntu 22.04 (I don't have 24.04 yet) uses X11, I would have thought 
that Qt wouldn't need any Wayland libraries for it.  But maybe Qt thinks it 
shouldn't load without it, who knows?

As I said a few minutes ago, I think it's time to abandon trying to get Leo
working on my system.

I suspect the problems relate to QtWayland ,
a client-server architecture that presumably mediates between Windows and
wsl. Unlike the real Ubuntu, something like QtWayland surely must be
required.

To repeat, I'll use the real Ubuntu if I want to play with executing sage
scripts from Leo.

Does Leo run and stay open?

Try this script:













*# Test import PyQt6.Qt  from PyQt6.QtCore import QUrlfrom 
PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplicationfrom PyQt6.QtWidgets import 
QMainWindowfrom PyQt6.QtWebEngineWidgets import QWebEngineViewimport sys#

I used it to ensure I could run VR3 and Freewin which required 
QWebEngineView.

Re: Installing Leo in wsl Ubuntu

More possibly helpful information I have collected:

Some Linux distros give an error message about a missing library when 
trying to run Leo after a first-time installation.  Missing Linux libraries 
can often be identified at pkgs.org:

http://pkgs.org/

Sometimes the error message will say that "libxcb-cursor0" is needed 
(that's "cursorZero", in case the font zero looks like the letter O), and 
sometimes that's not the right package name for that distro.  pkgs.org can 
help.

Per the referenced URL, setting this environmental variable
will produce a more detailed message about what Qt found missing:

export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1

Re: Installing Leo in wsl Ubuntu

Yes, you have to use --user --break-system-packages to pip-install with the 
system's Python installation. I've finally broken down and used a venv for 
my latest LinuxOS.  I run Leo with a script that activates the venv and 
runs Leo with the venv.  Remember that in Linux, you have to *source* the

In Linux you need:

Installing Leo in wsl Ubuntu

2024-10-15 Thread lewis

In response to Edward's request for experiences running Leo on wsl, here is 
a summary on running Leo on wsl Ubuntu-22.04 using the recommended github 
installation method. See 
https://leo-editor.github.io/leo-editor/installing.html for the basic 
procedure.
In wsl I did *NOT* have success using *pip install leo*, so this summary is 
focused on using Git to install Leo. 

Start wsl Ubuntu
Install git
*$ sudo apt install git*

Check git is installed
*$ git --version*


*$ git clone https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor.git$ cd leo-editor*

Note - When using pip, the "--break-system-packages" option is needed.
So use:

*~/leo-editor$ python3 -m pip install --break-system-packages -r 
requirements.txt*

It was necessary to install these 3 packages:


*$ sudo apt install libnss3$ sudo apt install libatomic1$ sudo apt install 
libxkbfile1*

Finally I had Leo running fully on wsl Ubuntu-22.04, with both Freewin and 
VR3 plugins running. 
You may want to try wsl Ubuntu-24.04

Feel free to ask for help. For clarity I have omitted some possible * 
fetch-pack* errors. 

Regards
Lewis

Rye does not depend on Python, which is something other package managers

  I have successfully tested it on Windows. Additionally, Leo itself can

Trouble installing Leo

2024-07-12 Thread Tiwo W.

 Hi folks,

I like I am doing something wrong, but I *am *following the instructions on 
the "Installing Leo" page.

I'm trying to install with pip on a freshly installed Linux VMs that 
created for the purpose of trying Leo. I'm creating&activating a Python 
virtual environment (python -m venv leo-venv)

First, PyQt6 seems to be required (even for leo-console); but it isn't 
listed as a dependency (it doesn't matter if I follow the instructions for 
installing from PyPI or from the git repository), neither in the PyPI 
package nor in the setup.cfg on Github.

And if I manually install PyQt6 (for example, with pip install -r 
requirements.txt), then Qt doesn't find its dependencies - starting with 
libEGL.so.1, but after I install that library, it's missing some 
fontcontrol library or whatever. At this point, I give up.

What am *I* missing here?

Thanks a lot,
Thomas

Need help installing Leo on Windows

Hi everyone,

many thanks to Edward and the community for beautiful Leo. Need your help 
installing it on Windows.

I usually work in Linux and install Leo successfully by downloading and 
unpacking leo-editor-6.3.zip and running launchLeo.py with gui=qt key. 
However, it did not work for me in Windows.

I already have Python and Qt on my PC. This is what I tried:
C:\Users\user>python C:\Users\user\OneDrive - 
User\Apps\Leo\leo-editor-6.3\launchLeo.py --gui=qt
It fails: can't find '__main__' module in 'C:\\Users\\user\\OneDrive'

When I try to run pip install according to Installing from sources 
recommendations I get:
C:\Users\user>pip install -editable C:\Users\user\OneDrive - 
User\Apps\Leo\leo-editor-6.3
ERROR: Directory 'C:\\Users\\user\\OneDrive' is not installable. Neither 
'setup.py' nor 'pyproject.toml' found.

"Installing Leo with pip" recommendation did not work for me either. Also, 
I prefer Leo 6.3.

Appreciate any advice on how to install Leo (ideally, 6.3) on Windows!

Kind regards, Serhii

Re: Need help installing Leo on Windows

2022-10-03 Thread Thomas Passin

This follows a very common convention.  A single-letter parameter on the 
command line takes a single dash, longer parameters take a double dash. 
E.g., 

-h
--help

Some programs don't quite follow the convention (java, for example, 
understands java -version) but Python and Leo do.

Nice file to help with installing Leo

2020-07-23 Thread Félix

Hi! Just thought Id mentions this,

I've installed Leo many times, and when installing on many debian based 
linux distros (the most common) an xml "mimetype' file is often required to 
have icons and menu entries to access leo and open leo files by clicking on 
their icons, etc. 

The file I'm talking about is so small I might as well type it here, it's 
leo-outline.xml :
http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info";>

leo-outline file




As a suggestion.,  I always thought this should be in the root folder of 
Leo as a helper file, for people to access easily at a whim when 
installing. (logical place to be for giving out to an end-user to use on 
his system/OS)

Thanks! - I've been able to check out the development branch from the 
cloned repository - and - install it using pip.

The logical next step would be to deliver a simple change, e.g. fixing the 
simple typo ``git chekout devel`` in

* .../leo-editor/leo/doc/LeoDocs.leo#Leo's Documentation-->Installing & 
running Leo-->@rst html/installing.html-->Installing Leo 
itself-->Installing Leo with git

as a pull request (PR) for leo-editor ...

Is there anything specific to Leo, that should be considered in addition to 
the available information on GitHub on how to deliver PRs?

With kind regards,

Changing PYTHONPATH between d:\code\leo-devel or d:\code\leo-experiment12 
can be simpler than setting up different virtual enviroments for them, 
especially if they use all the same libraries. For me this doesn't solve 
the #4 problem though, forgetting what those folders are for! Switching 
venv or variable, it's the same end from different paths. *(haha! pun 
intended, but I didn't see until aftewards.)*

(BTW, I'm not trying to persuade you or anyone else to move away from what 
works for you. We each have our own best fitting clothes.)

Re: Question related to 'Installing Leo with Git'?

2020-04-25 Thread Thomas Passin

I am going to reiterate here something I posted in another thread.  If you 
want to use the git method (or indeed run from a downloaded unzipped 
archive), there is another way to set up your system besides virtual 
environments or pip install --editable.  I do it this way because I have 
the standard python installation I started with, and then later I wanted to 
use git clones since I was doing some development on a plugin.  Python uses 
an environmental variable just for purposes like this: PYTHONPATH.

Python will look for imports and library files in PYTHONPATH first.  So I 
set it to point to the location of my Leo git clone.  On my Windows 
machine, the command is:

set PYTHONPATH=d:\tom\git\leo-editor

(On Linux, of course,it would be more like

PYTHONPATH=
export $PYTHONPATH
)

I find this way very satisfactory, because:

1. I get all the benefits of using a git clone;
2. I can go back to my standard install simply by not setting the variable;
3. If I want to work with a clone of some other Python library (such as 
rst2pdf, which I did a bit of work on), I just set PYTHONPATH to point 
there instead;
4. I get confused after a time when I set up more than a few virtual 
environments, because I forget what they were all for and what the state of 
their libraries and configuration is.  This way I don't need those virtual 
environments.

Re: Question related to 'Installing Leo with Git'?

2020-04-25 Thread Thomas Passin

As the footnoted reference says, If you install from Git, you can get the 
latest development versions.  What it does not say is that the latest 
development version is usually not in the "master" branch of the git 
repository.  It is usually in the "devel" branch.  If you don't know Git a 
bit - so that you can switch the branch - or don't want to fuss with 
learning about it, you might as well not bother.  Also, installing with pip 
sets up some things that simply running from a Git clone does not.  This 
could explain some of the error messages, if you get them using the Git 
clone and not using the pip installation. (These messages are harmless, 
mostly about missing test-related components).

   - Upgrades are faster and easier, a simple `git pull` and you're done. 
   Only the new and changed files are downloaded. With a pip upgrade a full 
   download, uninstall, reinstall cycle is needed.
   - Switching between stable release and development versions or even 
   downgrading is easy: `git checkout master`, `git checkout devel` or `git 
   checkout v6.0`. 
   - you have all the files in the root directory so when opening certain 
   .leo files distributed with Leo there won't be complaints about missing 
   files (as per in my reply to the other thread).

Question related to 'Installing Leo with Git'?

2020-04-25 Thread Viktor Ransmayr

Hello Edward & Community,

As I stated in my other message ( 
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/leo-editor/gNXPxjD9Yvg/z4bW4CtNAwAJ ) I now 
have successfully created a third PyVE, where I followed the method 
described in [1].

What's surprising to me - and - I'm taking the view of a Leo newbie here, 
is that the installed Leo instance is

###

Leo Log Window
*Leo 6.2.1 final, master branch, build 49c5e4fa3c*
2020-03-30 08:39:10 -0500
Python 3.7.6, PyQt version 5.14.2
linux
setting leoID from os.getenv('USER'): 'user'
current dir: /home/user/PyVE/Repo/Leo-Repo
...

###

Why should I prefer this method, if I don't get anything else than if I 
would simple do a 'pip install leo'? - What am I missing?

With kind regards,

Viktor

https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/1415 - Leo crashes on 
startup with unexpected exception loading session and then unexpected 
reading empty workbook errors on startup. (I note an apparent missing word 
in 2nd message.) Both tracebacks complain that a .leo file doesn't exist. 
It doesn't, said file is in an old directory that doesn't exist anymore. 
After removing HOME\.leo folder Leo starts okay. Putting the problem .leo 
folder back is a reliable way of reproducing the crash.

I leave the technical details for Matt to explain - but - we now finally
reached a state, where the underlying issue is clearly identified :-)

I can demonstrate, that such an installation works, if the "Leo-devel"
instance starts w/o an existing '~/.leo' directory - and - on the other
hand consistently fails, when my existing '~/.leo' directory is used.

Note: With the content in this directory I don't have any issues at all
when using 'Leo-6.0-final' ...

Viktor does this work? (adjust to wherever launchLeo.py is):

The root of these paths don't match which indicates the VE is not clean, 
that there is a prior install of Leo in the mix. Leo should be looking for 
quickstart.leo under `github\leo-devel`

I would try:

(A) `pip unininstall leo`, inspect `PYTHONHOME\lib\site-packages` and 
`PYTHONHOME\Scripts` for anything Leo, and delete them if found. Then try 
`pip install --editable ...` again.

Or: (B) Start from the top with a new VE.

I now adjusted my approach. - That is I tried to follow your instructions 
as closely as possible - but - take explicitely into account that I'm using 
Powershell 5 & Windows 10 ...

Here are the steps that I used for my second attempt :

   1. Create & activate a new PyVE. - OK. - See "Log-001"
   2. Use 'Invoke-WebRequest' to download the current version of 
   'devel.zip' from GitHub. - OK. - See "Log-002"
   3. Use 'Expand-Archive' to extract the downloaded archive. - OK. - See 
   "Log-003"
   4. Use 'pip' to install 'leo-devel'. - OK. - See "Log-004"
   5. Start 'leo-devel' - Not OK. - No further information available ...
   6. Close the 'leo-master' instance and retry to start 'leo-devel' using 
   'leo-m' ...
   7. Start 'leo-devel' again. - Not OK. - See "Log-005"

I'm just reporting the content of 'Log-005' here.

Now I really need your feedback on what the problem is ...

With kind regards,

Viktor

No, not deliberate. It's a result from Python's package evolution and how 
pip works. 

Leo is both a Library and an Application and python packaging is designed 
mostly around the Library part. We could make it work and there are a 
couple good reasons aside from unwanted pip results to do it, but it is a 
major effort that would make every developer who uses Leo have to adjust 
their workflow and tooling. The source code tree structure would change at 
root, breaking many many scripts. Not gonna happen anytime soon. ;-)

Here's a follow-up status report, which shows the limited progress I made:

   1. Use 'wget' alias w/i PS. - OK. - See "Log-004"
   2. Use 'extract-archive' w/i PS. - OK. - See "Log-005"
   3. Use 'pip' w/i PS. - Not OK. - See "Log-006"

Do you have an explanation, why pip fails in this context?

For the moment I'll stop here - and - restart my activities concerning the
usage of a 'usable' dark theme in a/ my Windows 10 environment.

With kind regards,

Here's an **intermediate** status report, which show very nicely how 
difficult it is to create correct & precise documentation.

TL;DR : I ran into unforseen problems, since I don't use theWindows Command 
Prompt but use PowerShell as my default console in Windows.

Longer version of the story:

I tried to follow your instructions as closely as possible:

::

Assumes **Python 3.6+** is installed and in PATH.

Installing from source code into a new environment must be done in 
discrete steps: **download**, **unpack archive**, and **install as 
editable** mode.

Example::

wget https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/archive/devel.zip
7z x devel.zip -o C:\apps
pip install --editable C:\apps\leo-editor-devel

Here are the steps that I performed:

1) Create & activate a new PyVE. - OK. - See "Log-001"
2) Download & install wget. - Not OK. - See "Log-002"
3) It looks like you don't even have to install 'wget' if you are a PS 
user. - Partially OK. - See "Log-003"

I'll only publish Log-002 & Log-003 here, since they contain the 
interesting content ...

Now I'll continue to try to get a version of the Leo Developement Branch in 
a new Python Virtual Environment (PyVE) working without the need to use git 
as a Leo User ...

With kind regards,

Viktor

docs: Installing Leo from sources (all platforms)

2019-10-10 Thread Matt Wilkie

I just pushed 51ca4f21b956beced0951de02a399e56a070ca01 which contains
generic install-from-source instructions for all platforms. It might need
some format tuning and perhaps other edting. I think it could replace or be
merged with a couple of the following nodes. Or at least something to
improve the flow and reduce redundancy. Have at 'er. ;-)

*.../leo-editor/leo/doc/LeoDocs.leo#Leo's Documentation-->Installing &
running Leo-->@rst html/installing.html-->Installing Leo
itself-->Installing Leo from sources (all platforms)*

QQQ
Generic recipe for all platforms. Adjustment for local norms is expected.
For example `7z` could be `unzip` or interactive extraction and `wget`
could be a browser download.

Linux: it's generally advised to use pip ``--user`` flag instead of `sudo`.

Assumes **Python 3.6+** is installed and in PATH.

Installing from source code into a new environment must be done in discrete
steps: **download**, **unpack archive**, and **install as editable** mode.

Example::

wget https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/archive/devel.zip
7z x devel.zip -o C:\apps
pip install --editable C:\apps\leo-editor-devel

For easier upgrading substitute ``git clone`` for wget & 7z steps::

git clone --single-branch -b devel --depth=200
https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor.git
pip install --editable leo-editor

time passes, upgrade desired::

pushd c:\apps\leo-editor
git pull
pip uninstall leo
pip install --editable .

`single-branch`, `b` and `depth` are all optional, but will dramatically
speed up download time as it only grabs the latest development branch and
skips all but the last couple weeks or months of history.

###
Note
###

Direct ``pip install
https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/archive/devel.zip`` does *not*
work. For proper operation Leo relies on presence of certain files outside
of the standard Python `site-packages` folder structure.

See `Running Leo`_ for how to run Leo after installing it.

PyQt v5.13.0 should work, it does for sure on Windows. Is PyQtWebEngine 
installed? Try `pip show PyQtWebEngine`. If not then try `pip install 
PyQtWebEngine`.

It's supposed to be installed automatically but adding it as a distinct 
package was a change added recently 
 and it hasn't been 
widely tested.

Most probably it is the PyQt5 version that is newer than Leo expects.
Try executing the following line in the terminal.
python -c "from PyQt5 import Qt;print(Qt.qVersion())"

And report here what is the output you get.

I remember having to install an older version of PyQt5 in order to make Leo

problem installing Leo on Linux

2019-08-05 Thread Geoff Evans

I'm using Leo happily on different computers and operating systems, but 
when I try to install on a new Linux computer I run into trouble.
I started by installing Anaconda (version current as of the week before 
last) as Edward suggests, and then followed instructions on the 
leoeditor.com web site.  I first tried "pip install leo", and then 
downloaded the source code and tried to run "python pathname/launchLeo.py" 
and got the same error messages both times:

cannot import name 'QtWebKit' from 'PyQt5'

additional error:
...

from PyQt5 import QtWebEngineCore as QtWebKit
PyCapsule_GetPointer called with an incorrect name

Can anyone help?  (1) What did I do wrong?  (2) How can I fix it?  (3) How 
should I have been able to use the documentation to find out for myself?

You're welcome :)  

The world of command line incantations and the intricate web of software 
and platform dependencies is indeed a strange one. It's easy to forget that 
after being here so long. I'm sure you'll get your sea legs; you have 
perseverance. The good news is that you don't *need* that to use Leo -- 
after getting started, which you done.

Stunningly obvious once someone explains it. I really should have seen it 
myself. My lack of knowledge of Python is making me miss the obvious 
sometimes.

   *python3 ~/leo-editor/launchLeo.py*  loaded Leo with no problem. 

A simple john@jonh-T510:~$ *leo* seems to be working fine. 

Thanks to you and Matt for all the help.

BTW, I am reading *The Entrepreneurial State *by Mariana Mazzucato and the

Yes python3 is a program that will execute python scripts. You should 
supply your path to the folder you installed Leo in. Replace 
'path/to/leo-editor'  in the above command with the real path on your 
computer. The rest of this path '/launchLeo.py' is file located inside Leo

Thanks Matt, but where or how do I run  *python3

Is *python3* an integral part of the command or does it mean I should run
it in  *Python3*?

I have *no *idea how Python works. I once managed to write a four–line
Python program but that is about it.


At Root or in /leo-editor I get errors. Example

Try this:

python3 path/to/leo-editor/launchLeo.py

I think Leo is installing the launch wrapper scripts to a 
PYTHONHOME/Scripts directory that is not in your PATH

Re: Problem installing Leo under 18.04

2019-02-14 Thread John Kane

I have returned.
Due to some slightly stupid things I did (not in Leo!) I decided on a new 
install of Ubuntu 18.04

Here is the installation script I am using for Leo

Install Python

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-pip
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5


# Combination of instructions from Matt Wilkie & Vitalije Milosevic 
(vitalije) on Googlee Groups leo-editor.

sudo apt install git
 
wget http://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/zipball/devel/ --output-file 
leo-editor-devel.zip

unzip leo-editor-devel.zip # Note problem

# rename the resultant folder something reasonable
mv leo-editor-leo-editor-ca0c671 leo-editor

cd ~/leo.editor

cd leo-editor
pip3 install --editable ./

I am now back to where I was about Feb 7.

*Results *

john@jonh-T510:~$ leo

Command 'leo' not found, but can be installed with:

sudo apt install libwww-dict-leo-org-perl

john@jonh-T510:~$ 


I also tried using  Neil Becker's cmd with no success 

 python3 setup.py install --user


Would anyone have a suggestion where I am going wrong?

Thanks

Note I am still getting the strange behaviour, after a clean Ubuntu 
install, that when I download * leo-editor-devel.zip *ArchiveManager 
reports that the file is corrupt. A repeat of the wget command, without 
trashing * leo-editor-devel.zip, * gives me a zip file *index.htms.1* which 
unzips into the leo folder.

I seem to have both Python Python 2.7.15rc1 &  Python 3.6.7-1~18.04 
installed. I also have pip installed.

Interesting. I get the same error on Windows. 

[Later] It seems the `--user` and `--editable` options are incompatible 
(`pip3 install --editable .` works). Looks like a bug in pip. I didn't find 
anything in their tracker, though a comment in #4296 
<https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/4296> might indicate why, *"...`--user` 
with `--editable` is something almost no one does as most people install 
editable packages in virtualenvs I guess.".*

Curious that when I copy paste the specific command listed in the error it 
does work:

> python -c "import setuptools, 
tokenize;__file__='c:/users/mattw/code/leo-editor/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 
'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('\r\n',

Neal:  If you rename `pyproject,toml` or move it out of the way pip install 
will probably work without having to download a new copy of leo.

It seems like there is an error in setup.py. I hope Matt will fix that. In 
the meantime try running install command from the unzipped leo-editor

cd leo-editor

There was suggestion earlier in this thread to do like this. Perhaps now, 
when you already have python3-pyqt5 installed, it will work.

Hi Vitalije, hi Matt; 

Some success, loading with* leo-console* but is there a way to load a GUI. 
The GNOME terminal does not look all that user-friendly—see attached image.

Something I forgot to mention in my last post: when I executed the wget 
command it downloaded a corrupted .zip file. I executed the command again, 
expecting that the old file would be overwritten. No, instead I got a zip 
file named* index.html.1* no file extension. I extracted it and got the 
functioning *leo-editor-leo-editor-96b7679* file.

Thanks for all the help. I am feeling a lot more positive about this.

You should install python3-pyqt5:

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

This should be enough for running Leo.

Re: Problem installing Leo under 18.04

Thanks for the details. The Leo console tkinter errors might be worth 
opening an issue but will need to wait for Edward to get back. At any rate 
it's not a problem I would pursue. Tkinter isn't used for Qt gui mode. 
Console mode works, but is not very much fun relative to the real thing and 
I don't recommend it for someone just getting started. I probably shouldn't 
have muddied the waters by bringing it up. ;-)

Re: Problem installing Leo under 18.04

Well the *leo-console* was not happy. See code below.

I installed* python-tk* as requested. No luck and a simple *leo* returns
the same error as I got yesterday.

No idea of what is going on at the moment.

I saw the *pyqt-??* package mentioned yesterday. I will have a go at
tracking it down tomorrow. It is just late enough here that I am likely to
make stupid mistakes and miss things tonight.

Thanks for all the help.

Closer! It needs to be *pyqt*, though I'm not sure what the actual package 
name would be.

Looks like we are closer but not quite. Looked like a successful 
installation—I did have to install *python-pip* but I am getting:
*jrkrideau@john-T510:~$ leo*

*setting leoID from os.getenv('USER'): 'jrkrideau'*
*Traceback (most recent call last):*

*  File "/home/jrkrideau/leo-editor/leo/core/leoApp.py", line 1081, in 
createQtGui*
*assert Qt*

*AssertionError*

*can not import Qt*
*jrkrideau@john-T510:~$*

I did a *sudo apt install qt5-default *but I am getting the same error. 

Re brevity, I am a long-time denizen of the R-help mailing lists where 
replies such as *FAQ 7.11  *or *Don't post in HTML* or* ?set.seed* are not 
uncommon.  

Thanks for all the time and help.

Hmm. I don't get it (but there's a great many things I don't get about git. 
I wish something else had won the revision control developer mind share.) 
Anyway a git clone isn't essential, it just makes future updates easier. 
Try this:

wget http://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/zipball/devel/ --output 
leo-editor-devel.zip

unzip leo-editor-devel.zip

# rename the resultant folder something reasonable
mv leo-editor-leo-editor-96b7679 leo-editor

pip install --editable leo-editor
