1. maybe not executable
Is an Euphoria source file, in a .ZIP file, considered executable? I
personally don't think it is. I can't "execute" the .ZIP file, and I can't
execute the source file _without_ an executioner, namely EX.EXE.

Alan, unfortunately the issue isn't "executable", it's "machine
readable". The U.S. government has prosecuted cases where source
code on magnetic tape for a pure compiled language has been sent
out of the United States, and they have won the case. They have
lost on physically printed media.

I argue that Euphoria source is not, as you say, machine-readable. "pure
compiled"? You know Euphoria is not a compiled language; it is an
interpreted language.
