Is there a reason why the PR isn't merged? Does it work for others please?

[wmeints]

Tried to merge this pull request into my own repository. It contains a number of problems, that I was unable to solve. I'm thinking about fixing these issues and creating a new pull request.

@wmeints yeah the commit on which this request is based is a bit outdated… care to share which problems your encountered?

To get this branch running I needed to edit xiki_command.rb (you have an 'end' missing before line 95).. and gem install win32-pipe as you haven't added the dependency in the gem file.

I now have an xiki command line.. but no idea how to make it let me interact with it... as running it outputs some docs and exits.

I appreciate people making an effort for windows support!

I'm a few days/weeks out from pushing a pretty drastically new version to a
github branch. Let's hold off on patching the old one and try to make the
new codebase be compatible with windows after I push it.
