error in plugin 'gulp-notify': connect econnrefused

[foolyoghurt]

Every time after the notification printed to the console, this error occurs.

I run it on Windows 7 with Node v0.10.21. The code is simple:

var gulp = require('gulp'),
    uglify = require('gulp-uglify'),
    rename = require('gulp-rename'),
    concat = require('gulp-concat'),
    notify = require('gulp-notify'),
    livereload = require('gulp-livereload'),
    server = require('tiny-lr')();

// Scripts
gulp.task('scripts', function() {
  return gulp.src('public/js/*.js')
    .pipe(concat('all.js'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('public/dist/js'))
    .pipe(rename({ suffix: '.min' }))
    .pipe(uglify())
    .pipe(livereload(server))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('public/dist/js'))
    .pipe(notify({ message: 'Scripts task complete' }));
});

gulp.task('default', function() {
    gulp.start('scripts');
});

I just tested it on Ubuntu and it worked FINE!!

Hi! Do you have growl installed? On windows 7 it requires growl to send messages. The error you refer to is because notify couldn't connect to growl.

What version of gulp-notify do you run, if so? :-)

Yeah, now I install it and it works fine. But it is a little complicated. I
think you should tell people who use windows to install GROWL first in the
readme file. I don't event heard of growl before you told me and I think so
do some others.

Thanks so much for your help!

Good idea. I've updated the README with requirements. Hope this helps!
