Earlier quoted context omitted.

Heads up, just sent an e-mail to feedback, with an error on starting up the system on powershell. Not sure if it's my environment or not.

You first need to allow remote scripts to be executed with: set-executionpolicy remotesigned Then you have to "Unblock" the downloaded ps1 file (Properties, click Unblock at the bottom). Next you have to make sure that java.exe is in your path. After that you are good to go!

This line does not appear to be working - any ideas? (new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile("http://temp2.kodowa.com/playground/light.ps1, "light.ps1")

you can just manually download that script if you need to at the url it uses:

A quick search failed me but I am pretty sure my question has been discussing elsewhere, in which case I would appreciate a redirect/summary. Is there a difference between LightTable and Emacs' eval-last-sexp and similar functions? What is LightTable supposed to add? besides support for Clojure.

It's prettier. And it shows parameter expansion in some cases I think. And some day it will have some fancy-ass version of narrow-to-tag (which actually does sound like a real step forward).

that's what I ended up doing - working fine now :)

Thanks for considering Windows user in this release.

Alas it has issues. I tried to install, with the initial commands not working. Downloaded the script myself, set execution policy and it stated running. Download issues arise (probably due to being behind a proxy requiring authentication) and after a few minutes the script managed to remove itself.

I will try again when I have a real internet connection.
