The Euphoria for DOS zip file has been included at FreeDOS repository. http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/euphoria/ Is not a real installer, just a zip file with installed system without the windows specific files. This is the first step to include it in a future FreeDOS release. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A. Achury Caracas, Venezuela

FreeDOS has not oportunity to compete agains windows or linux as the main operative system for daily use. Except for people with very old hardware. But has some applications. FreeDOS has received a lot of free publicity from DELL that included the system as an option for people buying PCs. Video card manufacturers and others have included in the hardware a FreeDOS boot disk (CDROM or floppy) with tools to make bios updates and other maintenance work. There will be an impresive market for embebed applications like point of sale or industrial control computers. Look an example at: http://www.jkmicro.com/products/flashtcp.html This kind of equipment may receive a very small version of the interpreter, or Euphoria code translated and compiled on C. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Marco A.

Hi
I installed the Freedos package on this new minilaptop of mine, and ran some stuff under dosbox (ok so far). Then I tried to bind some stuff, and I get a can't finde scanner.e include error.
What needs to be done is you need to delete the entire source directory in the Freedos package, and replace it with a 3.11 source directory installation from a dos / windows installation - then everythings fine, and it all binds ok.
