Why is this crate specified as unix only?

Hi Marcos! Out of curiosity, why is this crate specified as Unix only? I spent some time reading through the code, and don't see anything jumping out at me that would break on Windows machine. Is there something I'm missing that's limiting it to Unix?

Hey @ameyabhat 👋.

This was marked as Unix only because I use the UNIX-specific symlink function.

Windows has two types of symlinks, and I didn't bother to understand their differences.

It's been a thing with my projects as well, sometimes I cannot reliably guarantee that stuff will work on Windows because I don't have a Windows system.

I could put the function that uses that os::symlink behind a cfg(Unix) check tho 🤔 and it should compile fine.

got it, makes sense! That would be incredibly helpful - happy to submit a PR if that's useful for you!

Yes please submit a PR if you can :)

You can remove the "Unix-only" notice and add the cfg() on that thing 👍
