Rob:
I find slightly annoying the need to insert a whitespace character in a file
that has to be read by means of get(), because to create such a file you
would need two instructions for each object, namely:
print(file, object)
puts(file, "\n") (or puts(file, " ") )
Maybe there is an alternative to this that I don't know.
Another subject:
I'm having problems with the function check_break(). When I use it in the
attached stripped down version of one of my programs, and I type ^C, no
message is printed in spite that ^C appears on the screen. Moreover, if I
type ^2 (that I don't know why it behaves similarly to ^C), two ^C are
printed on the screen the first time, and the message appears the second
time. Then, while typing ^2, it cycles between these two outputs.

Of course Control-C.
Did you test the little program that was attached?

This has been brought to my attention a couple of
times. The whitespace requirement would not be easy
to remove. Somewhere in the archives from a few years ago
is a rather long and tedious explanation.

I tried your program and it seemed to work as it should,
except that it seems to be necessary for a normal character
to be typed after typing control-c, or else the control-c
isn't detected. I guess this is a "feature" of DOS.

4. Two questions
Hi everybody. I've got two questions:
1. Where can I download the different versions of Euphoria?
2. How can I transform my .ex-file into an .exe-file?
CU later

Type BIND filename.ex and it will create filename.exe.
