multiprocessing.Manager issue

Windows 10 x64, Python 3.6.6 (Anaconda), VS Code.
I've tried to run several examples but it gives error on pypeln import line:
from pypeln import process as pr :

        This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
        child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
        in the main module:

            if __name__ == '__main__':
                freeze_support()
                ...

        The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
        is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.

I also tried to put pypeln import inside if __name__ == '__main__': block but then child processes give the same error.

Hey @Winand !
This is very strange. I can only think this is because you are on Windows. Sadly, I have no easy way to test on this platform.
