Description
Currently _twistd_unix.py takes responsibility for checking and writing pidfiles. This means Windows doesn't do anything with pidfiles at all. At the very least, we can write one.

Personally I think effort should be put into running twisted as a service on Windows, rather than replicating Unix type functionality. There really shouldn't be any need on win32 for twistd.pid if using a well written service.

David-Sarah thinks, just because there's been no activity on this ticket in the last five years, that this means Twisted hackers are not going to fix this. What a thing to think! https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/27#comment:23

Here is a related ticket on the allmydata.org "tahoe" trac:
http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/ticket/27 -- "twistd doesn't daemonize on windows"
We currently have a work-around in place for our win32 product, but there are also a few technical details in that ticket that may be interesting.
