Mohammad, thanks for following up. I do understand that the 401 error 
reflects a problem with authorization, and that's why I clarified (in my 
post) that I *had* attempted to follow your tutorial, including the steps 
to create the personal access token (with repo and gist permissions), and 
even tried doing those steps a second time once the first failed. Clearly, 
something is not right, but it seems to be something not addressed in the 
tutorial (or something that is there, but which I somehow failed to 
register, because of my total unfamiliarity with github). I'll try again 
when I have another hour to spare.
