I tried it, and I was able to add spaces between commands ... now, I didn't try anything specific, I just got it to start up and log me in as treehouse user, then I typed away and was able to use my space-bar without any problems.

I would recommend sending an email to help@teamtreehouse.com, explaining the situation, and providing your computer specs.

1)Click on the link http://teamtreehouse.com/library/git-basics/getting-started-with-git/committing-changes through google chrome. 2)Click green button Lunch Console. 3)Wait for the terminal emulator to load 4) Try to enter "git init" wihout quotes and you will get "gitinit" because emulator for some reason does not react on space key.

Maybe I missed something, it seems to work for me.

On Chrome 31 under Windows 7. Maybe it's an extension, try it in incognito mode.

It works in incognito mode, by the way I am running Windows 8 x64

If it works in incognito mode, then it's one of your plugins that is interfering with the Treehouse console. Try disabling them one at-a-time to find the culprit.

Found the culprit, it was SmoothScroll 1.3.0.

Ilya Liverts, perhaps the plugin didn't initialize correctly on your machine. See if clearing the chache and force-refreshing (CTRL-F5) the page helps.

Refreshing page does not help.
