A question about installing GAPS on Windows

Hi, sorry for my noob question. After installing Macaulay2 (under the Linux subsystem for Windows), whenever I try to use GAPS, I encounter the error: "M2 return code is 1!". Is it possible to run GAPS under Windows?

I havn't tested it on windows, but it should support. The Matlab code just makes a system cmd line call to macaulay2 at https://github.com/prclibo/gaps/blob/master/generator/find_template.m#L85

Make sure that you have config the correct macaulay path and you can check what happened in the error by calling the system call cmd by yourself.
