I was wanting to know why the Euphoria software package isn't completely freeware for Linux.. what i mean is, why does the interpreter still have the 300 line limit like win32 and dos, and doesn't come with bind and shroud? I think it would make more sense if Euphoria was completely freeware for Linux platforms because free software and Open Source is what Linux was built on and charging for Linux development software sort of defeats the purpose of Linux development. I can understand why the source wouldn't be available for the Linux platform because people could port the code to Dos and Windows and compile it, thus inadvertantly making all platforms freeware. Thanks for any response. Ian. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

If I thought I could make more money in the long run by giving the Linux version away for free, I would. (Isn't more than half of it given away free already?) I know that there are lots of Linux developers out there, coding happily away on weekends, producing good code, and giving it away for free. That's wonderful. However, in my case, I do this full-time and I have a lot of bills to pay. Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com
