The projects builds fine under Ubuntu and macOS. However, when trying to build for Windows, I keep getting the following error:
```
...\nim-1.4.0\lib\wrappers\linenoise\linenoise.c:106:21: fatal error: termios.h: No such file or directory
 #include <termios.h>
                     ^
```
Any ideas?

You don't need linenoise.nim on Windows as the Windows terminal always supports the arrow keys. There is a rdstdin.nim stdlib module that you can use. Depends on how many terminal features you need though.

Totally, unimportant. I was using just one function: clearScreen. I removed it and it all seems to be working fine right now. I'll find another way to do the same thing

P.S. I've been struggling with setting up workflows for GitHub Actions all morning... and since I wanted some CI for Windows too, this is how I came across the issue - normally, I work on macOS (thank god lol)
