leo.py 3.7 is now available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/leo/
leo.py requires Python 2.1 and tcl/tk 8.3 or above.
The highlights of 3.7:
----------------------
- Now works with Python 2.1. Previous versions required Python 2.2.
- Many new user options, including user-definable shortcuts for all commands
and colors for all parts of Leo's windows.
As a result, it is now possible to use arrow keys as you desire.
- Minimal support for Unicode. Better support is coming.
- Improved handling of relative path names.
- The @first directive allows lines to precede the opening @+leo sentinel
line.
- The @last directive allows lines to follow the closing @-leo sentinel
line.
- Better support for Perl+pod.
- Leo now ends all lines with '\n' regardless of platform.
- Leo is now compatible with Python 2.1.
- Simplified sentinels reduce spurious CVS diffs.
- Many other minor improvements and bug fixes.
