Should now work on lnx64 (I expect a few niggles)
Other goodies: exception handling, declare on multiple assignment, getd_partial_key, cdCanvasRoundedBox/Rect, IupTreeAddNodes, builtins\regexe.e, builtins\json.e, and IupPlot.
Usual place: http://phix.x10.mx/download.php
Also, PCAN is up and running: http://phix.x10.mx/pmwiki/pmwiki.php

Yay! I've been waiting to try this. 
The few demo programs I tried seem to work.
But I get this:
$ ./phix p.exw
/home/greg/Downloads/phix.0.7.6/builtins/sort.e:9
global function sort(sequence x, integer order=ASCENDING)
^ unrecognised
...included by /home/greg/Downloads/phix.0.7.6/pilx86.e, line 15336
...included by /home/greg/Downloads/phix.0.7.6/p.exw, line 191
Press Enter, or d for diagnostics...
The constant ASCENDING seems to be defined in psym.e:
$ grep -nH ASCENDING *.e
psym.e:1916: initialConstant("ASCENDING",-1)
And I also get this:
$ ./phix -c p.exw
Check for and shut down any running instances of phix
(retry messages are given if required after round 4)

Oh, I changed it from the executable "phix" to "p", and then went and shipped an old one:

PCAN looks to be a good resource. While you have automatically rejected the DOS programs for the purposes of running with Phix (fair enough), should still point out that there are many gems in there that could be picked apart and made to run under Phix with eg allegro or sdl etc.
I see you have the IDE under the Phix section - is this a fully running under Phix version?
Cheers
Chris

Absolutely - everyone is free to edit and re-categorize entries as they see fit, eg replace [[!rejected]] with [[!broken]], or [[!DOS]] with [[!WIN]] or [[!GEN]].
There is actually a semi-hidden page, http://phix.x10.mx/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Category.DOS, that touches on those points, but it is not really much use since it is just a subset of http://phix.x10.mx/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Catagory.Rejected.
I see you have the IDE under the Phix section - is this a fully running under Phix version?
I believe so - at least it runs, although further testing is rather limited. I was under the impression you had posted something similar to The Archive, but I couldn't find it.
Some entries with ':' in the title may have slipped through the net, all too late now - they'll have to be fixed by hand.
Pete
PS I notice www.rapideuphoria.com is down yet again - third time in as many days - I hope that won't mean all that work proved pointless... [edit: it's back up again] Re-categorizing important things out of [[!rds-hosted]] in a sane and individually-tested fashion was always intended to be a community effort, rather than the mindless transfer of 2GB of useless junk. Simply re-badging selected entries as [[!broken]], with an appropriate comment, would certainly help.

The `p` ran the 64 bit linux test correctly on my machine.
Following the instructions is challenging; too challenging for a first time visitor to Phix.
I would like to see improved instructions. (Write slowly, use big letters, so someone like me can understand them.) This I can assist with.

I understand now. I saw the executable phix and figured that was supposed to be the main entry point. I've got p and it seems to work correctly now:
$ ./p -c p.exw
