I am affraid that wh-sandbox needs paths with slashes: /.../hyper.spad

The compile command is careful to overwrite the result only _after_
successful complilation.  In particular the compilation proper
creates HYPER.erlib and after it is created HYPER.NRLIB is removed
and HYPER.erlib renamed to HYPER.NRLIB.  

Currently HYPER.NRLIB is removed using "rm -r" command, which may
fail on Windows.
