David, I too am a little impressed, or at least awake again.
The py code could be a great testing phase for new features of Euphoria.

My questions, answers and ideas .....

 - I like the associated list, but why aren't you using it for the namespace
? It would be much more consistent, and easy.
        foo.e["i"]
 - I don't the namespace solution (hack ?!) of using the filename. Instead,
do something like this, to avoid the whole global/local/naming issue:

       include foo.pi
         bar as foo_bar
         i as foo_i
      end include

 - I don't like the auto creation of variables, why not distinguish:
          integer x = 5    -- declare & initialize
          x = 5  -- only assign a value

 - I like for-in-do .. everybody does. (except Robert obviously )
 - Where is the { left, middle, right }  = my_func () notation ?
 - And how to procedures work now ?

Good luck and succes ..

Cheers,

Ralf N.
