1. RE: Please help...
Hi Scott
I learned Euphoria by
1) get to know sequence's and how to use them and get into them.
2) go through one command at a time like start with printf then after
you know how to use that one then try another.soon you will be knowing
the commands then look at other programs and see how they are used.hope
this helps and also use the mail list it is a great place to be and you
will get alot of e-mail too :)
if you need help,you can e-mail me I am just learning too and I am
writing my first big program called ecommand.com it is a command.com
program I just have dir,cd,copy so far but it is fun to play with.

When I try to do this it gives me an error message:
upper has not been defined ???
Do you need to use a special include file for the upper() command?

Ahh... Wildcard.e...
OK, thats pretty much it, but how do I turn thinks back to
normal after using upper()??? And is there a way to make it permenently
on for what the USERS type ONLY? Not the in-program text and everything?
