Generator functions in node 0.12

Are generator functions supported in Node? I keep reading that they are since v 0.11.

Tried to run this snippet in node 0.12

function* range(max, step) {
  var count = 0;
  step = step || 1;

  for (var i = 0; i < max; i += step) {
      count++;
      yield i;
  }

  return count;
}

but no luck. Do I need to call npm start with a custom parameter?

You need to run node with --harmony flag to enable generators in node (0.11.x and 0.12.x versions):

$ node --harmony your_script.js
