1. Hello From Another Newbie.. :)

Hello Euphoria Community,

I would first like to thank all of you for your contributions to the
Euphoria community in the form of
utilities/support/libraries/examples/etc.  I have been using Euphoria
for about a month now and I really enjoy it.  I've recently got some
more free time so I've decided to become active in discussion.  :)

One thing I would *LOVE* to see is a few ports of Euphoria.  I have
Linux/Unix/Irix/BSD machines here and developing quick and dirty apps is
a breeze.  I've abandoned my 8+ year experice with ANSI C/C++ for the
lighter custom applications that I need to develope.  It seems as some
of the libraries are generic it shouldn't be too difficult to port this
over.  I also have access to a SPARC and Alpha machine running Linux (at
work) and would love to use Euphoria on them too.

I have yet to register, so my main question is this: Is anyone currently
working on any of these ports or libraries?  Would I need to purchase
the source code for these ports?  And finally:  Would there be any way I
(or a developer) could produce a demo for these operating
systems/architectures?

I do appoligize for my newbie vibe if this topic has been discussed
before.

Thanks in Advance,

Doug Miller

I don't know of anyone so far who is working on a port
to a version of Unix (besides Linux). I would personally
like to see a Free BSD port since that's what RapidEuphoria.com uses.
It's possible that I'll tackle it myself, but I'd prefer that someone else do
it.
Someone has expressed interest in doing an IBM mainframe port, and
someone else seems to be proceding with a palm-top port.

If you buy the source for $49, you can do anything you like with it,
except emulate the features that I'm selling (binding, tracing, profiling).
See license.htm.
