 Nyx can probably run in Cygwin, but native Windows support requires...

  * Curses alternative. [https://bugs.python.org/issue2889 Python has a
 ticket for adding Windows support] but looks unlikely to get traction.
 Forerunner seems to be [https://github.com/wmcbrine/PDCurses PDCurses].

  * Resource usage information. Stem already
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/commit/?id=5b26c692 supports
 Windows connection resolution] but we need to expand
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/nyx.git/tree/nyx/tracker.py#n186 Nyx's
 tracker] to retrieve cpu/memory usage on Windows too.

 Maybe some other gotchas too. [http://arstechnica.com/information-
 technology/2016/03/ubuntus-bash-and-linux-command-line-coming-to-
 windows-10/ Windows is adding a *nyx commandline] which might be
 interesting to keep an eye on.
