Josh is right that you can just edit the code by hand (which works but
sucks).
However, on Windows -- on the rare occasion when I also have to develop on
it -- I typically use a distribution that includes a compiler, cython,
hdf5, and pytables already and then I install my development version from
github OVER this. I recommend either EPD or Anaconda, though other
distributions listed here [1] might also work.
Be well
