Just downloaded the Scala Lift chat application and use the instructions to run it, but it fails

I cloned the project from:

https://github.com/dpp/simply_lift.git

Then I followed the instructions which state:

Change directories into the chat directory and type sbt update ~jetty-run.

SBT fetches dependencies, and then I get this:

[error] Not a valid command: jetty-run
[error] Expected '/'
[error] Expected ':'
[error] Not a valid key: jetty-run (similar: run)
[error] jetty-run
[error]

Now what?

In versions of SBT newer than 0.10.0, ~jetty-run has been removed in favour of: 

container:start
container:stop
deployment // compiles the changes made while jetty is running.

You should've used sbt from the packaged archive (./sbt). Instead of a system-wide SBT (which may be new).

Anyway, I suggest to use use the new SBT and everything new, too. This is the official and good starting point for a project: https://github.com/lift/lift_25_sbt/ (personally I use it and I'm cool with how it works)
