How to use packages in Julia Studio

I cannot get the package system to work in Julia Studio. For example, if I want to build a simple graph, I tried double-clicking the Winston package, which seems to be installed from the Git repo, and then:

using Winston
plot([1 2 3],[3 2 6])

But I get the error:

could not open file /Applications/JuliaStudio.app/Contents/Resources/juliaengine/Winston.jl

What does Julia look like in the wrong directory. How do I configure Julia Studio to work correctly with packages?

Answer to Adam: thank you, unfortunately, it seems there are a few problems. When I try to remove / add a Winston package, I get a message like:

julia> Pkg.rm("Winston")
ERROR: Unknown dependency for ODBC: julia
in dependencies at pkg/metadata.jl:156
in ReqsStruct at pkg/resolve.jl:65
in resolve at pkg/resolve.jl:1162
in _resolve at pkg.jl:230
in anonymous at no file:163
in cd at file.jl:26
in cd_pkgdir at pkg.jl:34
in rm at pkg.jl:141
in rm at pkg.jl:165

I will spend some more time on this and try to understand what is happening. I will send an update for completeness if I find it somewhere.
