I have no idea how I found this website. However, I got the RC file, installed it, been running demos, reading docs and saying "Hmmm..." for about 36 hours now.
Hmmm... I never thought I'd find a language better to program with than tried-and-true, down-and-dirty, balls-to-the-wall C. But, this could be it. Beats the hellouta Python fer sher.
Thanks.

Welcome aboard. We take suggestions too, BTW.
Euphoria ain't done yet, but we think that v4 is a good starting point.

Thanks for the invite. It will be a while before I know enough to make any worthy suggestions.

I was Assembler, Basic and then a Clipper programmer. I literally stumbled upon Euphoria way back in 1998 or so, when the original versions were in Assembler. Having researched 5-6 Basics, a couple of xBase languages, I have kept pace with Euphoria development over the years and find Euphoria the best amongst all of those.
I don't know any other languagw which has a DECENT ouput as dll, C, exe, lib, and can also be used as an Interpreter. I have played around a bit with Randall's HLA (High Level Assembler) but it is like comparing apples and oranges.
I have really been waiting for a s strong implementation of wxWidgets (as wxEuphoria). There were a few weaknesses working with Version 3 and wxEuphoria. I have yet to get going with Version 4 and wxEuphoria, and am dying to tear apart every aspect of Cell controls in the Grid class, and make exclusive use of Unicode in a large project. I will report if I am successful. And I WILL try Euphoria first.
Happy programming. BTW - Euphoria's examples were the only ones that worked first time for me without fail. The support team is small but very good. Many thanks to all Euphoria support people.

That's it exactly. I have a current project that requires parsing a 128B string into a series of 2-,3-,4-, or 5-character tokens that produce insertion, replacement, overwrite and overlay of existing objects. Lots of permutations. I'll try the Euphoria interpreter to reduce extensive compile-link-debug steps.

I think euphoria will come through. You could look at this, if you do not get going quickly. http://www.tcl.tk/software/tcltk/8.5.tml
