Because I wrote the code, I addressed it as I did not remove platform(). Not
that I ever would. I wrote the subject title that was misleading "No more
platform()" so I said I did not remove platform().

Now, did you actually read any of the examples or how to use the new ifdef that
I spent time in writing? I specifically stated that there are defines that the
system defines *itself*. Those are what version of euphoria your code is being
written on and what platform you are running on.
Please go back and read this post:

Pay specific attention to the examples, and also the overview which states
clearly:
3. Predefined "defines"
2a..... Current operating system (WIN32, DOS32, LINUX, FREEBSD)
2b..... Current Euphoria version (EU400)
