1. EE EDITOR - GRAPHICS MODE
I like the EE editor that comes with the text_gui toolkit.
But, I seem to have a problem with the graphics mode.
If I execute the editor from a different directory then the
toolkit directory, it tells me it can't open CHICAGO.FNT.
I am using the WIN95 interface in SVGA mode. I bound
the program and copy the ee.exe file into my euphoria\bin
directory. I am in the process of developing some software
that implements the text_gui toolkit. If all goes well I intend
to develop a windows version using win32lib. Keep up the
good work David and thanks for the VERY helpful tools.

The problem is that the font is expected to be in the current directory. =
I've tried to leave it up to the coder to decide how to include the =
fonts, if any. In your case, you can just leave the font out. You should =
be able to comment out line 42:
-- loadFont()
and take care of the problem. You can probably also comment out the =
include for the fonter code on line 8, since you won't be using it:
-- include fonter.e
I'd check it, but the machine I'm on right now doesn't run support SVGA.
I didn't put in any special code that searches for the font file, since =
I expected that people would probably want to use their own mechanisms - =
possibly even using an include file to load the data.

Thanks. I can't wait to see what it looks like.
If you are looking for a more "windows" looking GUI, there are a number =
of DOS GUIs in the works; Irv will (hopefully) be unveiling his this =
weekend. I expect to be spending a good chunk of this coming weekend =
rewriting major portions of my own DOS window manager - currently, it =
does little more than display window frames, but I'm slowly making =
progress.
