Apologies - this should be in the “First Steps” sub-category, but that wouldn’t open…

I’ve been using 0.4.6 on Windows for a year without problems, and have just switched to 0.5.1 so that my Windows version is the same as the Linux one on the remote cluster I use.

I’m sure this is a trivially simple problem, but I don’t know the answer:

Typing almost anything into the repl generates the following error:

WARNING: Caught an exception in the keymap:  
ERROR: SystemError: flush: No space left on device

Help very gratefully received!

I think it’s exactly what it says: `no space left on device` … Your hard drive is full!

Thanks! It’s just been one of those days when I should have stayed in bed…
