Cant run Bracey in windows.

When I try to run Bracey in windows, I see the following error message. Is there a way to fix it? image

oof, pretty hacky but logs are written to /tmp/ which aint gonna work on windows. Looks like you can change g:bracey_server_log to a path that's writable on your machine. I'm unsure if you'll run into additional problems on windows after this tho.

You then run into two problems:

  • xdg-open is not available, so no browser will open
  • if you open the page in your browser with localhost:, the page is not automatically updated.

@turbio , I could help making the python script cross-platform, but my skils in vimscript are a bit bleak, so I don't know how to solve these two problems.

The markdown-preview plugin does seem to have solved this problem.
