Experimental support for `batch` under MsWindows

2) I prepare two executable (4K each,i.e, the smallest size possible
under Windows): (i) a 'windowed' application (rconsole.exe) which should
behaves like my current version and (ii) a 'console' (I suppose
that a better name for rconsole is needed) application
(rbatch.exe) which does not open a graphich console but
use 'stdio'. I didn't test Emacs+ESS since, after some
bad (but old) experiences, I use Emacs
only under Unix; however, at least, `rbatch < afile > anothefile'
seems to work; in addition, when isatty() is false (I expect
this happening under Emacs) the code is exactly the Unix one.
I hope someone would test this version since, if it works,
I think that can add something to the current one (in particular,
if starting from this version we can obtaning an executable
working under Emacs).
But be aware: (i) it is the result of 2 hour of works on a train;

(ii) I have only test it on a Win98 notebook; (iii) as
Luke said, rbatch should not work under Win32s; (iv) Brian's
libraries must be rebuilt to make them working with this version.
Thanks much. I'm hacking Emacs/ESS on MS Windows platforms starting mid next month, thanks to some external prodding (and now, product availability from both R, Splus). And I think XLispStat might be able to talk (at least DDE), as well, which would be nice If anyone evaluates the situation before then (ESS/Emacs/R on MS Windows 95/98/NT), please send me some email with comments, to help me out! (MS isn't my native environment by a long shot :-). best, -tony
