There are other languages that run on 3 platforms, and some that run on 4 or
5, or more. And they have books, are free, have stepping IDEs, etc..

Printing out the help files has got to be cheaper, faster, and easier, then
ordering a book and having it shipped to you! If you do not have a printer,
possibly a college student can use the college computer class to print it out,
or in usa use Kinko's print service, or a library.

Well, I got the message. Let me see if I understood it well. Would it
be: "go get another 'free' multi-platform language, plenty of books,
and leave Euphoria to me!?!" If so, maybe I'll disappoint you.
