My understanding of Windows Dlls is that they are basically just executable files with a .dll extension that return a value. Is this correct? I know when you write them in C, you have to avoid calling the WinMain function or something like that. I also know you can write .dlls in different languages. What I don't know is if a Euphoria bound program can be a .dll (since I don't have the first clue about how to write one.) Also, about Python, I understand that you can both call c programs from Python and call Python from C programs. Can you call Euphoria programs from C and pass them data from the C program like in Python? For that matter, can you call Python programs and send them data and have them send data back to Eu programs? Is this kind of general cross-language messaging possible in ANY language? Thanks, Sherm
