1. Keeping Euphoria Files Updated With Development?

Can anyone explain the process of keeping my euphoria files updated to the current build so that I can stay relevant in the process of helping you guys test this out?
I poked around on sourceforge and saw all the versions and whatnot, but what is the easiest way for me to get from 4.0b2 to the current build?
Thanks Damien

The easiest way was just to check out svn trunk and build that with the latest eubins.
Now, on windows, you can download a recent eubin (13 megs) and it includes a full working tree (binaries and includes and source) as well as an svn working copy, saving you the time needed to checkout trunk.
To keep the svn working copy updated, just use 'svn up' command (or install TortiseSVN on windows and use that to keep update to date).
For other OSes, you still have to check out svn trunk and download eubins separately.

I feel dumb, but I think a that went a tiny bit over my head. I am on windows, but you lost me with eubin. Euphoria binaries? Where are those hiding? Perhaps you can help me find these eubins you speak of. Do you just mean one of the releases, like 4.0b2? Those don't seem to have any svn information. Or do they?
I've checked out the trunk, but those don't have any binaries, maybe these eubins I'm too silly to locate are them. I can do some compiling if necessary, but I'm a little lost in the structure. Is there some simple recompile .bat I'm missing somewhere?
Forgive my n00biness, I'm getting my feet wet for the first time. So thanks for the help.
Damien
P.S. I have TortiseSVN and think I know how to use it.

The windows eubins are at http://jeremy.cowgar.com/eubins/windows/
The one you want to download is http://jeremy.cowgar.com/eubins/windows/eubins-2907:2966-20091028.tgz which contains the svn working copy / svn checkout at revision 2966 as well as the binaries required to build them.
I forget the exact etymology of the word, but Euphoria Binaries is probably what eubins is derived from.
Note that you don't have to build anything, the binaries included in there are the latest full working, precompiled, version of 4.0 that was available at the time the eubins were uploaded. You only need to figure out how to recompile if you want to keep your binaries up to date with svn trunk yourself without having to download another set of eubins all over again.

I haven't tried out the new bakefile system yet. I still use the old configure.bat wmake commands. This only requires OpenWatcom to be installed.
Currently, it's not possible to just check out from svn and compile, you need to bootstrap with a eu 4.0 interpreter.

Thank you very much jimcbrown, for some reason I couldn't find a link to those eubins. Hopefully I won't have any more trouble, but I'll let you know if I do. :)
