Error when using ElectronDisplay's Table display

[realkrantz]

#This works:

using VegaLite, VegaDatasets, ElectronDisplay
dataset("cars") |> @vlplot(:point, x=:Acceleration, y=:Miles_per_Gallon, color=:Origin)

#But this does not work:

using DataFrames, ElectronDisplay
df = DataFrame(a=rand(100), b=rand(100), c=rand(100));
electrondisplay(df)

#Error message:

it turned out to be that running the second command required Administrator privs to create the named Pipe.

Although perhaps a more fine grained solution would work
