Espruino command-line and NPM module

For future reference, he is some information for people who want to try running the Espruino command line version on Windows (10).

The requirements are pretty well described here: http://www.serverpals.com/blog/building-­using-node-gyp-with-visual-studio-expres­s-2015-on-windows-10-pro-x64

I had to install Python 2.7(.11). The latest version of Python did NOT work so get version 2.7. I already had Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition installed. Make sure you select the Visual C++ option during your install.

Other requirements for me were:

1. SET PYTHON=C:\Python27 (The installer put Python in that folder)
   
2. Just to be sure I added the Python path also to my path with SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Python27
   
3. Open a Command Prompt with Administrative rights!
   
   

After make sure everything was installed correctly I was able to use NPM install -g Espruino for a successful install. Unfortunately, I don't have an Espruino (or ESP8266) with me to test if it works. If nothing is connected to a serial port, then starting Espruino comes up with an error:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>espruino
