i think the problem is that you omitted the leading pipes | | |
you have to count them carefully from the example and include them all,
even if void.

please take always care to include the name of the author of
Leafpad and the url to his website in the applist file

later on there will be a script to get this information out of the
modules and generate lists of authors and URLs to publish on the web and
in the CD for complete credits to all artisans involved :)

another request of course not specifically to you but anyone involving
in this module carnival: please avoid the common mistake to name only
the packager. the APPLIST file should include information about the
author for every menu entry. for information about the packager should
be used the VERSION file instead.


thanks :)

ciao
