Hi Billy,

Thanks very much for this - it could end up being a great help.
Hopefully somebody can take a look at this soon and we'll be able to
get it into the next major release.

We've always wanted to support Windows but since none of us use it
there's been little incentive so it does make a lot of difference
having a Windows user find the time to improve things.

All the best,
