Subject: nonblock extension for win32?

Howdy,

I recall reading that an extension was available for
win32 to provide nonblocking IO support.  I've searched
RAA but nothing turned up that sounded quite like what
I thought I remembered reading about.

Is there such a beast?  Does it work with pipes?

One of my applications has an unusable feature on windows
at present, because I need a nonblocking way to read from
a pipe returned from popen().  Is there any nonblocking
way to accomplish this in win32 ruby?


Thanks for any help,

Regards,

Bill
