No one? Well, let me be one...
I don't see a good reason why Euphoria must limit open files to 12 when
users can use FILES=50 or more...
Btw, does that 12 count standard files? (stdin, stdout, stderr, stdaux,
stdprn)
Hey, why is Euphoria list named "Euphoria Programming for MS-DOS"? It
shouldn't be, since we now have exw!
