Thanks for all your work on this. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I can't get meteorite to install on Win7. I think I've cloned the repo correctly, but maybe not in the right directory. I think i have Node installed correctly, but I'm not completely sure. Maybe I'm not running the command from the right directory. Also, maybe I need to add something to PATH, but not sure what. I appreciate any help you may be able to provide.

Here's the error at the end of the log: 2897 error meteorite@0.7.2 postinstall: sh ./completions/postinstall.sh 2897 error Exit status 1 2898 error Failed at the meteorite@0.7.2 postinstall script. 2898 error This is most likely a problem with the meteorite package, 2898 error not with npm itself. 2898 error Tell the author that this fails on your system: 2898 error sh ./completions/postinstall.sh 2898 error You can get their info via: 2898 error npm owner ls meteorite 2898 error There is likely additional logging output above. 2899 error System Windows_NT 6.1.7601 2900 error command "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js" "install" "-g" "meteorite" 2901 error cwd C:\Users\userName\meteor 2902 error node -v v0.10.29 2903 error npm -v 1.4.14 2904 error code ELIFECYCLE 2905 verbose exit [ 1, true ]

Just reading through the comment 285, it looks like Meteorites days are numbered. Don't want to waste your time. I'll just use Nitrous for now.
