Euphoria source code should always just be pasted at the end of a message, or
attached to the message as a text file.
A better method of sharing machine code (exe files, etc) would be to post
them via ftp. That way, they can be downloaded without any conversion
problems at all. My ftp site is availble at all times, free. Visit
You can get uudecoders from any of the shareware sites on the internet.
