Note

• The file "coffee-script.js" included in this repository is a part of CoffeeScript. You can get the latest version of this from the following.

  http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/extras/coffee-script.js

• This script works on JScript. So, some functions and objects that can be used by node.js cannot be used.

• Some problems are known in the direct running(without --compile).

  • Can not know the point that the error occurred.
  • Can not treat the arguments of command line.

• StdIn and StdOut of JScript can not treat binary data.

  • These are treat data as system default encoding.
  • If the output breaks, please try --encoding option.
  • Processing about file is performed with binary.
  • If how you treat binary data is known, please let me know.
