Glad to hear it worked!

While I don't know the answer to any of your questions, I think I can
give you a pointer.  Look at the file "spawn-process.js".  It has code
for checking if the operating system is Windows:

  const WINDOWS = (get_os() == "WINNT");
  const POSIX = !WINDOWS;

Unfortunately, I don't know if the function "get_os" can be invoked in
the rc file.
