Hi everybody!

I have a preliminary version (pre-alpha, as it were) of
an ASM -> Euphoria sequence translator I am working on, ready.
As I am very new to Euphoria, and also for some "technical" reasons,
I decided to make it in TP first, and when I take out the worst bugs,
add full 386 & 387 and upwards support, I'll release the Pascal source,
and will probably try to convert it to Euphoria. But there's still
a long way to go. I have yet to decide how to interface inline
assembler code to Euphoria variables, etc., other than
     {{#..., #...}, Some_variable, {#...,#...}}.
And lots of other minor and not-so-minor things.
The current version is very raw; it takes an asm file and translates
it into an ASCII file which can be included in Euphoria code, and
is a standalone program, not a real preprocessor--really just a
skeleton. I'll be adding some meat later. No promise as to the
time when I'll be able to finish it.

As it is probably usable in its current form, and might be (marginally)
useful for some of you out there (surely it's better to let George
do it rather than do the recalcs by hand or in Debug =;-O), if I have enough
 requests I can post the binary (about 15K zip) to the mailing list or
only to those interested.

Be warned, the program is dumb, raw, buggy, etc. Until I have the final
version, you're on your own. I can't guarantee anything
