after add USERPROFILE and CD for alternatives of HOME and PWD I have
el run on Windows, but I found some issues:
- ^ on windows is a escape char, so I can't make a string now :(
- I use Lua54, which not have bit32, and thus makes the tables not a
sequence and I can never use vars in .el file (move bit32 to last make
it work)

the ^ issue makes it's unusable on windows...
