[CS2] async/await doesn't transpile?

[kenOfYugen]

I was trying out the 2 branch. According to Progress as of December 2016, async/await is in.

Using the coffee --nodejs --harmony-async-await script.coffee command to run code works fine.

Transforming it to JS via coffee --nodejs --harmony-async-await -c script.coffee, the resulting code lacks all async statements! Am I doing something wrong?

And of course [email protected] complains with ReferenceError: await is not defined.
I saw the #4351 contains an example of transpiled code, is the code written by hand?

It's hard to tell without seeing any piece of code (input and output).

Passing --harmony-async-await when compiling is unnecessary, however.

No, as you did confirm: running the code directly works fine.

It was frustrating because any code, even the async tests didn't transpile correctly.
I just wanted confirmation, turns out there was a mistake on my part in the configuration, using two versions of coffee. Thanks, closing this.
