Thanks!

Don't hide current value when updating on Autorefresh

On Auto Refresh, don't cover over last value with "updating..." during the call as this can end up hiding the value more than it is shown.

Enhancement: option to also show USD converted price for Chinese exchanges

Similar to what http://bitcoinwisdom.com/ is now doing on nav bar for BTCChina

How do I install on os x?

There is no homebrew formula and I don't know how to install it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Request Failed

i just downloaded and every time I run BTC I get request failed.

bitstamp request fail

I think your API server is down, I guess.

It can't work, Could you tell me the reason?

I clone the code, then follow the README. but show this:

Edit:

based on the keypress examples it looks like it's expected to check that key is truthy prior to checking any properties. (if (key && key.name == 'return') { ... })

Add Altcoin support

I will take a shot at adding error handling when I find some time.

request failed

Everytime I run btc I get:

› mtgox request fail
bitstamp request fail
btce request fail
futures796 request fail
coinbase request fail
btcchina request fail
okcoin request fail
chbtc request fail
fxbtc request fail
btctrade request fail
btc100 request fail

Do I need to do some extra configuration?
