1. routine_id ??
What is the maximum number of routine_id's that can be used in a
program. Could the routine ids start at 1 instead of zero this would
seem more logical than a routine id of zero.

Millions.
A new id number is produced for each routine that you
get the routine id for. A tiny amount of memory is consumed
in the process.

Perhaps, but I'm not going to change it now.
Just add or subtract 1.
You can assume that routine id's will be small integers,
but don't assume that you will always get the same value
of routine id for a given routine. Things can change when
you add or delete code, or in a new release of Euphoria.

Rob:
Can I assume that they will not change during run-time once I
have requested one.
Thanks

Yes.
If you ask for the routine id multiple times on the same routine,
you will get the same number returned to you each time,
without consuming any extra memory.
