Singular does not support some windows platforms

[lucaferranti]

Hi,

I tried to install Singular.jl on my windows machine, but I did not manage to build the package, as apparently my platform is not supported. Is there anything that can be done?

apparently this was already answered here @ #52 . Apologies for bothering.
