Added Windows instructions to ReadME.md

[scotttd]

I added the first draft of instructions for installing Jekyll and Git-Pages to the Readme.md. There is still some refinement necessary and some proof reading.

[pearswj]

@scotttd looks like a comprehensive set of instructions! A few initial thoughts...

• Gosh, installing Python just for pygments is a pain! Had a quick look into it and it seems there is hope, but not just yet...
• You don't mention installing git and cloning the repo. Just a link to GitHub's help pages would be fine I think.
• Personally I wouldn't mention Python 3. If you know you need it then you probably don't need these instructions.

I've actually just installed a fresh copy of Windows so I'll run through the instructions and hopefully be able to give you some better feedback :)

@pearswj Glad you are watching! @acormier and I still need to update the OS X instructions...
...all of this stuff is very much Proof-Of-Concept so far, but we're really liking the concept.

Do we really need to install pygments? We aren't syntax highlighting code samples from within jekyll. Syntax highlighting is currently achieved through highlight.js on the client

[acormier]

I think we only needed pygments before with integrated highlight.js.

@scotttd since you're already set up with a Windows box, can you try uninstalling python and see if everything still works?

It appears not to work

[acormier]

it looks like you have to disable it.
Can you try this?
Disabling Pygments/Rouge

• Open _config.yml and set highlighter: none.
• Remove the @import "syntax-highlighting"; rule from your main style
  sheet.
• Re-serve your Jekyll site from the command-line to register the
  changes made to_config.yml.

Darn, I had just installed Python! I'll retrace my steps!

[acormier]

Thanks for looking into this Will. It's great that you're interested in
this project.

This does the trick! Adding highlighter: none and removing @import "syntax-highlighting" (see css/main.scss line 51).

I'll update index.html

Great! Thanks Will

The problem with not having Python installed and on the path is that Gem Jekyll will not install, because of a Liquid error that it cannot find Python.

[pearswj]

I went straight for gem install github-pages as this gem includes jekyll as a dependency. It appears to skip over the error. I'd like to double check that though!

Thanks @pearswj !
