My only concern is that if we're all having this much trouble with it, we might not want to use tty.js for the general Orion population. (I was fine spending time to try to fix it, but someone who just wants to use the Orion Node shell on Windows would get pretty annoyed pretty quickly, I imagine.)

Thoughts?

Kaitlin, I'm sorry I wasn't able to help with the windows problem.

I've been having problems installing it myself.  I upgraded to the latest node.js v0.10.25 and then typed npm install tty.js:

using npm install -g npm to upgrade from npm -v 1.3.24 to npm -v 1.3.26 and clearing the cache with npm cache clear fixed my problem.  Yeah!

Later,

Paul
