Hi,

	I know that is wasnt solicited (and I am sure that I will be putting my
foot in my mouth), but heres my 2bits anyway.  I think that Win32
support should be added, with 2 provisos.  First, it should include
support for console type programming within the Win32 environment,
second it should be easy to program with.  I keep trying to do windows
programming, and continue to find it too invovled to be worth the final
product.  Perhaps if there was some way to easily separate the
functional program code, from the interface code.  This would satisfy
me.  Anywho, I hope that this is of some help to somebody.
