'touch' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. #65

Running on Windows - 

(base) C:\Code\jupyterlab-demo>invoke demofiles
cleaning demofiles
creating demofolder
cloning repos into demo folder demofiles

'touch' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It happens because this line: ctx.run('touch move_this_file.txt; mkdir move_it_here')

'touch' program, doesn't exists in Windows, that why it fails.

Maybe, the code can be updated to check if it is Windows, and run equivalent command, like: type nul > move_this_file.txt

The same way the code does for rmdir.

Thanks
