Thank you for the feedback jimcbrown.
Vista has been out since 2006, and Microsoft still plans on building on that technology for future releases. It makes sense to design Euphoria for future releases of Windows.
I understand the developer's desire to keep the source code for all operating systems in one development branch, however, sometimes I feel like "I just want the darn thing to work on my computer." I was throwing out all of the options in a brainstorming manner. How I will proceed with this project at this point is still unknown. I have many ideas and have to eliminate the worst choices to find the way I want to go with it.
My depth of knowledge of different Windows operating systems is extensive, but I do programming to get a particular task done. I would like to see more interfaces to Windows API functions at a higher level, which is why I mentioned .NET and Java. There is a way to interface Java from C code, at least on Windows, and there is a way to integrate .NET code into a C project using MS Visual Studio.
I can eliminate those ideas from my collection of ideas for this project, and leave them for later, possibly a library.
My next post will be kind of long, so I'll stop this post here.
