Some bits from the video to get a sense of the flow:

1. Download, extract, run tests (assuming Ruby is installed):

2. Look at test results:

3. Examine relevant code:

4. Change code appropriately (trying things in irb and reading docs first if necessary):

5. Run tests again and look at results:

Found some Python ones.

There's a version for Python 2.x (python 2 folder) and one for Python 3.x (python 3 folder).

I used the "get source" near the top right of the aforementioned page to get an archive of the relevant files.

about colorSeems to work fine on Windows :)

ewemoa:
Color output for the locally installed (2010-12-23) Ruby Koans seems to work now.  The following steps were performed toward this end:

1. Install the win32console gem (adapted instructions from: https://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller/wiki/development-kit):


--- ---gem install win32console --platform=ruby

2. Apply the following changes to edgecase.rb:

  https://github.com/edgecase/ruby_koans/commit/a53c815da0af5974cd5bcd8bb38bc3f66742715b

Attached is an updated version of edgecase.rb.

Ruby VersionThis was all for a Ruby (1.9.3) .7z-based installation + DevKit obtained via:

  http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads/

Somehow I'm finding the colors too dark on my screen and the line numbers hard to see.  Didn't figure out anything for the former point, but made a quick hack to make (some?) line numbers stand out.

Attached are a patch and patched file including the earlier win32console color-enabling along with  "line numbers standing out" behavior.  The rest of a colored line with a line number turns white, but that doesn't seem to be a problem visually to me.
