Thank you for your response, Andreas. I searched on Google for other threads describing the same issue, but found none. It's good to know that others have run into this problem and that a fix is in the works.
I manually made the changes mentioned in the pull request <https://github.com/jakebolewski/Winston.jl/commit/4122eda2ca481015a56739a57aa7ed8ec13265b8> and everything works now! Thanks for the help!
