Build on Windows

How to build this on Windows? Nmake doesn't work with the Makefiles in the repo.

It's a regular dotnet project. Have you look at the command lines in the Makefile - it's mostly a thin wrapper over dotnet build, dotnet test

Good hint, I will look into that and try to build. With nmake, the Makefile had some syntax issue on Windows within the MSVC cmd shell.

@itpropro if you figure out why nmake isn't happy LMK please. FWIW I think I installed make via choco on my windows machine, and it was fine.

I was able to manually build marksman with dotnet (based on the makefile commands) and use it in nvim. nmake on Windows has problems with the curly braces in the makefile for some reason. I think the syntax is different on Windows.
The things that need updating are the identification in the first if statement to set the ARCH_ID to arm64 on Windows and the install.bat needs to be adjusted to accord for the new build folder path on Windows (win-arm64).
