Hi there,
First off, i see the v2.5a finally made it to press 
I must say, it looks
pretty good.
I've downloaded the new version eusetup.exe for windows and would like to
install but leave my old 2.4 version alone so i can still use that if i have
problems with 2.5 . Any ideas for the simplest way?
About 2.5 ...
Wow...crash routine() ? FINALLY he he. Very nice. People asked about
this for years and years.
No 'trace()' statement limit ... wow, nice. I've been thinking of using
Euphoria as the language of choice in an online course in EE im giving
and having a trace statement limitation just wouldnt cut it.
Is it going to stay this way? I think more people are apt to try it
if it does.
Also wow, the $ sign is used as string length...very nice too!
Great changes!
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!

I renamed my bin and include files bin24 and include24, so that I can
swap versions by renaming a coupld of directories.

I have on my machine:
C:\EUPHORIA.10
....
C:\EUPHORIA.15
C:\EUPHORIA.20
....
C:\EUPHORIA.24
C:\EUPHORIA -- this is in action, 2.5 now.
To use 2.4, I rename EUPHORIA as EUPHORIA.25,
then EUPHORIA.24 as EUPHORIA.

Hi again,
Ok, thanks Igor and Matt. I thought there might be other ways now
but i guess not. 2.5 is looking pretty good though.

Why not?
In the current euphoria\bin directory I have:
ex.exe -- 2.5 - dos32
ex_r.exe -- 2.3, Russian diagnostics, unlimited alphabet, dos32
ex_e.exe -- 2.3, English diagnostics, unlimited alphabet, dos32
exw.exe -- 2.5 - win32
exw_r.exe -- 2.3, Russian diagnostics, unlimited alphabet, win32
exw_e.exe -- 2.3, English diagnostics, unlimited alphabet, win32
ed.ex -- runs 2.5 ex.exe or exw.exe
red.ex -- runs 2.3 ex_r.exe or ex_e.exe or exw_r.exe or exw_e.exe
-- depending on current window.
So, I can run 6 different versions - 2 euphoria, 2 ruphoria, 2 nuphoria -
without renameing of directory, and 4 different 2.3 versions just from
red.ex, which sits in 2.5 euphoria\bin.

My solution was to have 2.4 as the default, and run a program with 2.5 by
right-clicking and choosing "Run with Euphoria 2.5". I do still use the
2.4 standard include files, as there is no big difference between it and the
old one, in what it does. However, the 2.5 standard include files uses $.
