Make it run under Cygwin

Having the option to use a bash shell for the convenience of execution and output manipulation would be beneficial. Currently, execution of the windows binary in Cygwin ends up in error:

$ ./loki.exe

Can't you just install python and yara-python module in cygwin and run the python script?

That's what I ended up doing. Few more steps but worth it. The CMD window is too restrictive.
