[Feature request] Package this app for Windows too #70

Hi, I've been using Pick on my Linux boxes for webdev work everyday and I love the way its so simple yet powerful. I was wondering if this can be packaged for Windows too. Can this be done via WSL, perhaps? or do we need to completely port the code? If someone can give me a starting point, I'll gladly contribute into building a Windows package for this app!

I honestly have no idea what's involved in making a Gtk 3 and Python 3 app run on Windows; whether that's better done via WSL or via building it and packaging for Windows itself (both Gtk and Python run there). I'd be happy to accept suggested patches for making a package that installs and runs on Windows without any further setup. (I don't really want something that requires a knowledgeable user to install Gtk and Python first.)
