Operating system: windows 7

Command line used: npm start

Steps to reproduce:

I am getting an error when I run 'npm start'

From package.json:

..."scripts": { "prestart": "babel-node tools/startMessage.js", "start": "npm-run-all --parallel open:src lint:watch", "open:src": "babel-node tools/srcServer.js", "lint": "node_modules/.bin/esw webpack.config.* src tools", "lint:watch": "npm run lint -- --watch" },...

NOTE: If I run: 'npm run lint -- --watch' all works perfect..

Sounds like a syntax error in package.json. If that doesn't help, upload your project to Github I'll give it a glance.
