browserify farmhash failed with unexpected char

[hoogw]

I try to browserify winnow.js,
But I get error:

I know that farmhash.node have node extension, browserify will failed with .node extension,
I try use browserify -t transform, but not sure how to use it to make it accept .node extension.

Another try is to use webpack, setup loader as node, will accept .node extension, I have not try yet,

Do you think why and what cause the trouble?
Webpack can success?
Browserify can success?
How?

Hi, I can see from your cross-post at koopjs/winnow#134 that you've discovered that this module requires Node.js and is unsuitable for a browser-based runtime.

Ok, got it, thanks, I modify source code, remove all farmhash, alternative use require('string-hash'), it works.
