escher --help seems to bomb.

escher --help seems to crash and burn somewhat. It takes quite a long time to execute before eventually spitting out the following:

Holly-male:~ dented42$ ~/.julia/v0.6/Escher/bin/escher --help

WARNING: deprecated syntax "abstract Tile" at /Users/dented42/.julia/v0.6/Escher/src/basics/tile.jl:13.
Use "abstract type Tile end" instead.
WARNING: could not import Base.writemime into Escher
ERROR: LoadError: LoadError: LoadError: MethodError: Cannot `convert` an object of type Symbol to an object of type AbstractString
This may have arisen from a call to the constructor AbstractString(...),
since type constructors fall back to convert methods.

Looks like the project is dead. One year since the last commit
