Thanks, I didn't know we could use browseURL like that! I've added that into 33e2c82 with some commentary about setting the working directory, and more informative console output.

I don't think we should be encouraging people to use setwd() because it's generally bad for reproducibility because full paths typically only exist on a single machine in the whole world.

I will think a bit more about the token instructions, that's a good idea to include more information. We might need some text that is a bit more novice friendly. I'll have a look.
