Another one. Since seeing the "should we end the practice of issuing releases" thread in GG, I decided to try bazaar for the first time rather than doing a regular download/install.

Well not quite 8-)
I was very confused why the "download" checkout whatever took so long, and my leo-editor folder had a whole set of directories with hardly anything sizable in there, much less the editor executables I was expecting.
It took a fair bit of googling and doc reading for me to figure out the next step - export!
bzr export /path to target/eg/Lib/site-packages/leo-editor4 lp:leo-editor
So with that in mind, the next statement:
> When you want to refresh the code with latest modifications from Launchpad, run bzr pull.
Is that complete? Does it require the path to the "working directory" (where I exported to right?) or just the lp:leo-editor string or???
I would suggest first making a clear step-by-step for people just interested in running Leo and keeping it up to date, and then have a completely separate section for the (presumably much smaller group of) people that think they might actually be helping to develop the software.
