Re: Translating Euphoria Apps -- Which compiler do you use?

Currently Euphoria on Windows/DOS supports:
- DJGPP
- LCC-Win32
- Watcom
- Borland
When you translate a Euphoria program to C and then compile, which compiler do you use? The dev team is thinking of dropping a few. Borland was last released in 2000 and it was the final release, never to be updated again, not even for bug fixes. LCC-Win32 is free only for non-commercial, you have to pay if you use it for educational or commercial purposes. DJGPP is for DOS only. Watcom is free, open source, easy to install and supports Windows 9x, Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 3.x, DOS and FreeDOS. To help simplify the C code in Euphoria, we are thinking of dropping DJGPP, LCC and Borland and making Watcom the compiler for Windows and GCC the compiler for Unixes (as it currently is).
Thanks for any input,

Watcom for windows.
I do have DJGPP installed but I've not tested it for DOS yet.
