Binary package for windows

Are you open to create a wheel package for windows delivering all the binary deps? (I would do it and send you a PR)

I created a project which aims to produce binaries for windows of current file version here: https://github.com/julian-r/file-windows

I'm not that familiar with how this works on windows. What would this look like for users? My preference TBH is to have a separate package with the binaries with really good documentation for setup.

Ok, I've made a branch available here: https://github.com/julian-r/python-magic. It offers a windows 32/64 bit binary and a mac binary. Also uploaded it to the pypi. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-magic-bin/0.4.14

IMHO the advantage is pip install and it just works, otherwise is such a hassle of getting the right shared libraries and everything.
