Yes, we moved from sourceforge.net to github!

I got an error when trying to run the new Popeye (possibly a security issue?). In the input file I specified the following:

protocol xxx.txt

On running pywin32.exe (under Windows XP) I got the following message:

input-error:cannot open output-file
offending item: xxx.txt

Popeye solved the problem OK, but no output file was created.

Windows XP? Are you serious???

> input-error:cannot open output-file

Do you have write access to the directory where this file is to be created?

(I'm using Windows XP too! Anyway, the problem also happens on Vista.)

I think the output file specified by "protocol" is expected to be there (it's no longer created by Popeye). Fancy has problems as a result as well...

When I wrote:

I erred on the harsh side - obviously, Popeye users are serious.

Please let's continue the discussion of this issue over on github: https://github.com/thomas-maeder/popeye/issues/198
