Windows compatibility issues

[joffemd]

Here are some roadblocks I hit when attempting to install Heydan on a Windows 10 box:

(1) It seems that kgio and unicorn are not compatible with Windows
(2) I couldn’t perform downloads because Ruby returned a certificate error. I found a couple of web pages that had downloadable certificates and suggestions about setting up an SSL_CERT_FILE environment variable but couldn’t get it working. I suspect this could be resolved with more effort.
(3) A more minor issue is that I couldn’t invoke heydan from the command prompt, but could work around this with “ruby heydan”.
(4) Windows versions of Ruby apparently do not support process.fork which seems to be required for sync
