IMHO there is no need to implement _all_ the functionality: you'll
simply get Cygwin, written in Scheme ;))) Especially 'fork',
uid/gid-functionality and 'select' for file handles.
Oh, I meant the missing functionality in chicken-setup, not in
posixwin.scm.
The most accessible and useful features may be as follows:
1) creating process with redirected I/O, waiting for process, 'sleep'-ing
2) 'uname' analogue
3) 'mmap'
4) locking record
I'll try to implement them.
That would be cool. Please drop me a note once you have updated
stuff.
cheers,
