Windows Support

[jhedrick]

It would seem that it is not possible to run pdf-extract from MS Windows as built? Just Googling around didn't yield any promising reasons why this is occurring? Any ideas?

System Configuration:

• Microsoft Windows 8.1 x64
• Ruby 2.2.3p173 (2015-08-18 revision 51636) [x64-mingw32]
• DevKit-mingw64-64-4.7.2-20130224-1432-sfx
• pdf-extract gem version 0.1.1

Error message:

Not that I am aware of. I did not try to patch, and have not looked back into it lately.
