Got it - thanks Alex.

I wish there was a libposix (perhaps using libuv) that PicoLisp would work
against and then it would magically work on Mac and Windows too :)

I was working on miniPicoLIsp with the idea of building in those
features into miniPicoLisp (since it already works on Windows - builds
using MS C compiler after VLA removal and Mac). I think an SDL (libSDL) app
may be a good POC.

Kashyap
