I was wondering about that too. I think he's referring to the node 
executable(s) from nodejs.org. If you have the node executable in the same 
directory as the rest of tiddly server, then you don't need to install 
nodejs separately or make a long path to the installed executable. 

I wonder if it would be an intellectual property violation to make a 
complete bundle that already contained the node executable? Reduce the 
number of steps, which are still quite a few for newbies. 

If the executable was there, then a next step (for windows users) would be 
to include a batch file or shortcut file to launch the server. That way the 
user wouldn't have to drop to a command shell. One less step. Probably 
shell scripts of some type would work for mac or linux users.
