Description

Hi,
Not an issue as such, just a clarification request.
Sorry but I have no idea how to do 'github'. Very much a learner and the below would save much fruitless frustration for newbies like me.
Can a 'maintainer' please add to the top of the Arduino_Wifi_AVRISP demo sketch a simple comment to the effect, it does not work in windows, just in Linux.
When I went down this path trying to get it to work over WiFi, I came across lots of others having the same problem (in Windows) as the windows network functionality to redirect serial to a network stream does not seem to be present in windows, as it is in Linux.
I have no problem using it in Linux, that seems to be fine.
Thanks.
