How to solve Error: ENOENT, stat

Question

I´ve installed NPM and stylus global way in Mac OS, but when I try create a new-file.styl the following error occurs:

$ stylus -c -w mi-estilo.styl
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/stylus/bin/stylus:640
    if (err) throw err;
               ^
Error: ENOENT, stat 'mi-estilo.styl'
    at Error (native)

I searched the solution, but . . . I don't have any success.

could someone help me please?

Answer 1

The error message is saying that it expects to find 'mi-estilo.styl'. You seem to expect that it should be created. Looking at stylus --help , -c option is for "compress" and -w is for "watch", there is no indication that something should be created.
