Thanks for your tests and this breakdown compilation of the current state. This should be a page in the wiki.

I resurveyed the options on Windows this morning for PicoLisp 1. pil32 compiled under mingw -- compiles but doesn't work due to issues with reading from stdin -- example (load "lib.l") is read as (load "lib.") . similar failures when invoking from command line 2. pil32 compiled under cygwin - compiles and passes same tests as midipix pil64. However, when running the app/main.l it crashes with "DB read: Bad file descriptor". This has come up before ( https://www.mail-archive.com/picolisp@software-lab.de/msg03430.html) and still seems to be an issue 3. pil64 emu - compiles but fails on (wait) tests... seems to hang indefinitely. Possibly can be fixed with *C-params, but I don't particularly want to run emu 4. pil64 midipix-based preview port [this release] ... runs app/main.l and I can click around and view records. I noticed some instability when editing and will research further 5. pil64 running under windows 10 subsystem - not tested as I don't have windows 10 x64 >From my usage #4 is the best bet it seems
