Espruino NPM CLI Issue in Sending Code to Board

Hello,

I have just installed the espruino NPM package, and is "partially" working.

My vital signs are:

Host Machine
  - Windows 10
  - Node:   8.11.3
  - NPM:    5.6.0
  - Espruino NPM package: 0.1.13
MCU
  - Espruino WiFi
  - Version:  1v99

I can successfully connect to my Espruino WiFi board, and execute the MCU remotely via the espruino NPM CLI.

However, I am experiencing a number of very weird run-time errors, when sending code to the board using the espruino NPM package. Things like:

• Cannot place an "else" clause (of an if/then/else) on a second line. The following run-time error is encountered ONLY when the code is in-line (i.e. the error is not experienced when the code is within a function).

  Uncaught SyntaxError: Got else expected EOF
  at line 2 col 1
  else {
  ^
  

• Cannot "require" more than one module. When the second module is included, I receive the following run-time error:

  Uncaught ReferenceError: "dModules" is not defined
  at line 1 col 10
  dModules.addCached("TestMod3","print('expanding TestMod3.js...
  

All this code runs correctly, when it is sent via the Espruino IDE. I only have these problems when sending the code using the Espruino NPM package.

Obviously, something very rudimentary is out-of-whack.

By enabling verbose output, I have determined that the issue is something related to escape sequences sent to the board, however I do not know how to resolve.

Sending the following code snippet:

var x = 1;
if (x===1) {
  x++;
}
else { // CRAZY: can't be on a seperate line (when code is in-line)
  x--;
}

Sends the following stream:

Sending...
---> "\u0010reset();\n\u0010var x = 1;\n\u0010\u001b[4dif (x===1) {\r\u001b\n  x++;\r\u001b\n}\r\u001b\nelse { // CRAZY: can't be on a seperate line (when code is in-line)\r\u001b\n  x--;\r\u001b\n}\n\u0010\u001b[60dsave()\n\n"

Generating the following run-time error:

:else { // CRAZY: can't be on a seperate line (when code is in-line)
:
:  x--;
:
:}
Uncaught SyntaxError: Got else expected EOF
 at line 2 col 1
else { // CRAZY: can't be on a seperate line (when code is i...
^

Again, the issue has something to do with the escape sequences, but I do not know how to resolve.

Your help is greatly appreciated in resolving this issue.
