1. UPX - making euphoria binaries PI sized

I was stunned when I squeezed eui with UPX. Eui was reduced from 4280 to 720 kilobytes, 16.20% of its original size.
So...... I noticed that there is a UPX for the arm platform: http://upx.sourceforge.net/
download:
http://upx.sourceforge.net/download/upx-3.09-armeb_linux.tar.bz2
It appears that most PI disk space is in the 4-32 gigabyte range, it might be handy to have UPX to squeeze euphoria binaries. Ed.ex translated/compiled/links to a binary about 33% of the original binary file.

you'll have to build from source as that binary is big endian and the raspberry pi (& most arm based systems these days) run as little endian

I challenge you to put a EUPHORIA distribution on a 1.44 MB floppy disk. ;)
