Hi all,
I was looking for Nim as a scripting language and after a while i found Nimcr.
I currently have it working, but i am amazed with the amount of problems to get
it working.
I used nimble to install the package (never had problems with nimble) but it
gave an error:
15:56:00,43 C:\Users\Dippo\Dropbox\NIM>nimble install nimcr
Downloading https://github.com/PMunch/nimcr using git
Error: unhandled exception: Unable to query remote tags for
https://github.com/P
Munch/nimcr. Git returned: fatal: unable to access
'https://github.com/PMunch/ni
mcr/': error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert
protocol v
ersion
I first thought that the url was not correct so i :
15:56:29,25 C:\Users\Dippo\Dropbox\NIM>nimble install
https://github.com/PMunch/
nimcr
Error: 'hg' not in PATH.
I searched for Error: 'hg' not in PATH on the web and i found that it's a SSL
error. There was not solution to solve this (perhaps on Linux, but not in
Windows). So i manualy installed (copy paste) the code.
So, now i can compile the code:
16:32:41,21 C:\Users\Dippo\Dropbox\NIM>nim c -d:release nimcr.nim

nimcr.nim(46, 17) Error: expression 'execShellCmd("attrib +H " & exeName)'
is of
type 'int' and has to be discarded
I first was a bit confused with this error, but i found out that :
discard execShellCmd("attrib +H " & exeName)
this is the correct code. The discard is not in the original code.
Can somebody look at these errors and perhaps tell me what goes wrong. I tooked
me 1 hour to get this (tiny) package working.
Greetings, Dippo
