c++ - missiong popen functions

Hi all,
When I was trying to compile lua (www.lua.org) with dmc, it complained
that it cannot open functions _popen/_pclose.
Those functions are MS specific but correspond to *ix popen/pclose ones.=

Is it possible to implement them in a near future?
The current stdio.h have declarations for popen surrounded by defines fo=
r  =

*ix
so they do not appear in windows builds.
Regards,
Todor
