Hi.

Thanks. I was able to duplicate this.

It's not clear from my example (I'll change it) but you either need to have 
gource.exe in path and be in a code repository directory, or specify one.

Cheers

Andrew

I figured it was operator error.
So how do I specify a code repository directory?
And where/how do I get a code repository directory?

The last argument on the command line is the directory of the code repository 
to use ie:

gource [options] repository

How do you get a repository? Well you could install Git (windows client: 
http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/) you can use 'git clone REPOSITORY_URL 
DESTINATION_DIRECTORY' to download any open source projects on 
http://github.com/.
