Failing to run sudo python setup.py generate #101

I get the following output when I run the command:

running generate
running coffee
running sass
running scripts/inline

fs.js:1739
  fs.writeSync(this.fd, data, 0, data.length);
                                                      ^

In cldoc/scripts/inline, why do you print the return value of inline? It seems that inline returns nothing, which leads to a call to process.stdout.write with an undefined parameter and hence the error. As the doc of inline-source says, you have to pass it a callback function which will receive the html. This html can be outputted to the index.html file.

Because the version of inline-source when I wrote this was doing this differently. I've now pinned to versions of coffee and inline-source in the Makefile. I could use npm/package.json but I didn't want to mix that with python setup.py.
