Thanks, Michael, for your compliment. They have just discovered it is possible
to write bloated software even in Euphoria. Perhaps, it should be mercifully
shrouded like the other stuff. Jiri

        Hey, i am not shrouding it, so maybe people can improve it....
....if i ever write a game with it that is cool engough to make money
(taking train out of reality here) i'll still give it for free to
make Eyphoria more popular!! I think EUphoria is an UnderGround
language, while it beats all those other marketing languages (If you
buy a MS product, about 80% was used for its commercial and other
brain washing stuff that should be illigal, i mean when did they
want to improve there sucky win 3.11, when offcourse os/2 warp came
out.)
