Better solution doesn't work?

I am successfully running Node.js 0.6.3 with NPM on Windows and I followed your instructions (put CoffeeScript into Program Files) but I cannot get it working (I am using Windows XP):

C:\Documents and Settings\alessio>@echo off
'@echo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\alessio>"C:\Program Files\Node\node.exe" "C:\Program F
iles\CoffeeScript\bin\coffee" -v
The system cannot find the path specified.

Ok seems node installed itself into nodejs instead of Node. My bad

I can compile stuff etc, but the first thing still stands:

C:\Documents and Settings\alessio>@echo off
'@echo' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Sounds like your editor's using UTF-8 encoding and is adding an invisible BOM character to the beginning of the file.

Re-save the file with UTF-8 without BOM or ASCII encoding, it should help. Or simply grab this file instead: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/165521/coffee.cmd

Thanks, that fixed it
