Leo 6.0-final installing and running with python 3.8

[Quaraman]

Hi @all,

I installed and run Leo 6.0-final in Python 3.8 with following changes:

file: Python38\Lib\site-packages\leo\core\leoApp.py:

line 2392 : t1 = time.process_time()

rewrited method createCursesGui to:

def createCursesGui(self, fileName='', verbose=False):

self.createQtGui()

I tried to use following wheel:

https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#curses curses‑2.2.1+utf8‑cp38‑cp38‑win_amd64.whl

But then I get an error that some widgets to large. Because of this I

file: Python38\Lib\site-packages\leo\core\leoColorizer.py :

line 2164 : t1 = time.process_time()

line 2188: self.tot_time += time.process_time() - t1

My System data:

Leo 6.0-final
Python 3.8.0, PyQt version 5.13.1
Windows 10 AMD64 (build 10.0.18362) SP0

Hope that helps someone....

Thanks for this workaround.  An easier one is to install Leo using git.  That way you get the latest code.
