1. namespace qualifiers
I think this shouldn't be allowed :
include <library> as <keyword> | <builtin>
Example :
include get.e as puts
puts(1, "Hello !") -- puts has not been declared
Instead of that, interpreter should say
include <library> as <builtin>
Attempt to redefine <builtin>
btw. if you want to see full list of changes in Eu 2.3,
run on Linux
diff -r -u euphoria22 euphoria | more
You'll see interesting things, eg.
Bill Clinton replaced by George Bush in email.exw

It prevents you from using a keyword
(like "while", "procedure", etc.)
as your namespace id, but it allows you to
override a builtin routine, just as you can already
when you define a new routine.
It seems consistent to me.

But this :
include get.e as atom
gives you an error, because namespace qualifier "atom"
overrides builtin type "atom" in get.e, which shouldn't happen -
refman says :
"A namespace identifier has local scope.
It is known only within the file that declares it,
i.e. the file that contains the include statement"
Interpreter should also say that builtin is redefined by qualifier,
like if it is redefined by procedure.
[other issue]
I think it may be written in relnotes that exw now in 2.3
waits for a key to be pressed after a console program exits.
In lots of programs the line
if getc(0) then end if
before exit is now no longer needed.
(Including dsearch.exw)

Ok, thanks. I'll reconsider this issue.

exw for 2.3 alpha sometimes needs you to hit Enter twice
when exiting a console window. That's a bug. I've fixed it now.
Tone Skoda reported it also.

ecw is also affected.

Yes. All the Windows-related programs go through
the same termination code, and sometimes you need
to hit Enter an extra time. It's fixed now. Thanks.
