1. Euphoria and Windows resources
I don't know whether the question has been asked before: if one already
has something like Borland's Resource Workshop, or Delphi, with which
graphic Windows interfaces can be designed easily, is there some way to
take a resulting .RC or .RES files and somehow link them to Euphoria? Or
if this possibility does not yet exist, is this something that somebody
should try to implement?

Yes, it is certainly feasible.
I chose not to take that approach with Win32Lib, mainly because not everyone
*has* a resource compiler. But dialog windows would have been a lot easier
if I had taken that route. A lot of stuff is done automagically for you with
resources - tab order, hot keys, etc. And I wouldn't have to worry about
writing a graphical designer.
LCC (a freeware Win32 C compiler) comes with a free resource compiler.

If you want to make a simple window with some controls on it, then use
my Visual Win32lib program:
Version 0.5 (coming soon) will have limited code editing and a more
VB-like interface.
Hope this is roughly what you're looking for,
Stephen
