Quote of the month
------------------
Leo is the best IDE that I have had the pleasure to use. I have been using
it
now for about 2 -- 3 months. It has totally changed not only the way that I
program, but also the way that I store and organize all of the information
that
I need for the job that I do. -- Ian Mulvany

What is Leo?
------------
- A programmer's editor, an outlining editor and a flexible browser.
- A literate programming tool, compatible with noweb and CWEB.

of projects within a single outline.
