...Note the corruption. I think this happens when I drag the scroll bar while console output is being emitted. (msysgit's problem?) I would presume and hope that this is a "display only" issue.
# .vbs failure
I copied the `git-annex.lnk` out of my admin user's start menu onto my desktop and double clicked it. `wscript.exe` got stuck in a loop where new copies were being spawned over and over again (and old copies dieing at the same rate).
I think I know why. `git-annex.exe` isn't on the path... but `git-annex.lnk` is in the CWD (Desktop in this case). Yeah, that is the problem. The vbs attempts to run "git-annex webapp", and this .lnk points to a valid "executable": `git-annex-webapp.vbs`... So it just calls itself with an argument over and over again.
Workaround: invoke `git annex webapp` from the normal git bash console.
# Conclusion
I hope this information is helpful. I've enabled the 'email comments to me' option on this post and I'd be happy to perform further tests upon request.
