Hi, After I started Julia Studio I received this message in the Output Console window:
ERROR: package directory C:\Users\pamela_j\Documents\v0.3 doesn't exist; run Pkg.init() to create it. in error at error.jl:21 in cd at pkg/dir.jl:25 while loading C:\Program Files\JuliaStudio-0.4.5\julia-studio\share\julia-studio\Console\Console.jl, in expression starting on line 1 Therefore, I don't have even the chance to write any command in the Console window as Julia> doesn't appear. What can I do? I hope you can help me, Thanks, Pam.
