Hi,

I tried to run rk install-template on Windows 7 and it failed with the following error:

C:\Anaconda>rk install-template
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\anaconda\lib\runpy.py", line 162, in _run_module_as_main
    "__main__", fname, loader, pkg_name)
  File "c:\anaconda\lib\runpy.py", line 72, in _run_code
    exec code in run_globals
  File "C:\Anaconda\Scripts\rk.exe\__main__.py", line 5, in <module>
  File "c:\anaconda\lib\site-packages\rk\rk.py", line 7, in <module>
    from os import link, listdir, makedirs, remove, strerror
ImportError: cannot import name link

(As you can see, I'm using Anaconda distribution)

Is the utility is compatible with Windows? What would you recommend?

Cheers, Denis
