+### Windows Issues
+
+Due to [bad behavior from both SQLite and Windows][stderr] the
+official SQLite command shell binary will *not* work with Emacsql on
+Windows. Fortunately, [this simple patch][patch] corrects the issue.
+Here's a build with the fix:
+
+ * [sqlite3.exe][exe] (3.8.2, [asc][asc])
+
+Also, due to a [long-standing Emacs bug][batch], Emacsql cannot be
+used in Emacs' "-batch" mode on Windows, which includes running the
+Emacsql test suite from the Makefile.
