@roger: The Nyquist SYSTEM function does not work under Windows.

See nyquist/sys/win/winfun.c:

LVAL xsystem (V) { return NIL; }

@alex: the startup overhead is very small, but it may happen that
you need to start Nyquist under Windows with a custom-made init.lsp
in case Nyquist doesn't find its library and runtime directories.

At the beginning of the Nyquist manual is explained how this works.
