Is there anybody, who can help me? I did have a look at the language Euphoria whithin a dokumentation and firstly i was "euphorisch"... what a great language! It seems to be very easy to understand, like Hypertalk, VB or thomething like this. So i did install the software to make some tests. But all i could see were a plenty of files and i didnt know, what to do with all that. Then I read, that you have to download a GUI, if you wants to use it. So I download a Gui, but I did see only some more Files, without knowing, what to do with it. To click on eatch file didnt work. I tried to find a program, you can click on it, to open a GUI, to have a chance to make the first step. But I couldnt find anything. And i didnt find a help-dokumentation, whitch I was able to undertand, what they are speaking about. Is there anybody, who can help me, or is Euphoria only a Language for "top-programmer-people", who has many experience with languages like c++? Please help me. Thank you.

Hi, Which GUI have you downloaded? Please download EuVIDE - bound win32lib IDE (Oct 24/05) from recent user contrib. You will be able to try out examples using the same. Rad.

... hi Chris, thank you again, but I lost my intress in Euphoria. I see, that it is also nessesary to spend your time at first in Dos befor having a chance to use Euphoria and you have firstly to search, install and compose many files, only for starting the Programm. Its realy much to complicate and all deskriptions, whow to come in, dosen`t work by me. I decided now for Delphi... installation, one click and you can start writing a program with a complitely GUI. Thats easy. Thank you and by. uwe

Euphoria is the easiest programming language I have ever used. Delphi, while nice, is very expensive costing up to $3,000 for the Architect version of the IDE+compiler. Euphoria is free and open-source, expect for the translator, binder, and fast C backend source... but even all that is only $167 USD, with one free upgrade then the rest forever at upgrade price. Alot of people dont need those products, so everything is free lunch for them. Cheers, Vincent

Hi No problem I started with GWBasix, moved to PCC, then Delphi - which I thought was the bees knees, until I discovered C again (gcc on Linux), and finally I came across this 'hobby' language almost by accident - and to be quite honest, once you start to grasp the sequence concept, and its ease of use of syntax, well I haven't look back since. Good luck with Delphi though - its a very powerful and widely supported language, I just found its strings / pointers and objects a bit - irritating - sometimes.

I see, that are good arguments and I must admit, the language by itself realy seams to be easy. So it´s a pitty to give it up. But the periphery is so comlicated to handle, that´s very frustrating, when there is no surface for comming in. Why euphoria is so hidden in this funtionality? Why is it possible to open Delpi with a click and you can set buttons and fields and there is a prepared place for scripting and why doesn`t the same work in Euphoria? For example, who want´s nowadays going back to the routs, to learn Dos again? Not everybody is grown up with that old way to use a computer. I don´t see, why it should be nessesary to spend time in learning an outmoded concept? I like it to use "clicky bunty" and i also have to present programs with handsome fields an buttons. Give me a surface like in delphi and a same easy way to get in and I surely could find many people to convince of Euphoria. Perhaps Euphoria isn`t that sophisticated and it´s better to wait, till it will be growing up out of the range of hackers? Cheers, Uwe Vincent wrote: > Sorry to see you leave...

Uwe: If you would like to try using Euphoria to do easy windows programming. You need to first install Euphoria on your computer. Download from here : http://www.rapideuphoria.com/25/e25setup.exe Then to instal an easy to use program to make windows programs. Download from here : http://www.rapideuphoria.com/euwingui.zip There are other libraries for windows programming but this will make it easy to make windows programs until you learn more advance Euphoria programming.

For simple basics try: Beginers Guide: http://www.rapideuphoria.com/cgi-bin/asearch.exu?dos=on&win=on&lnx=on&gen=on&keywords=gay To start writing buttons and fields right away try: http://www.rapideuphoria.com/cgi-bin/asearch.exu?dos=on&win=on&lnx=on&gen=on&keywords=ide You can be wriring windows programs in one day.
