I am reading David Gay's A beginner's guide to Euphoria II (ABGTE2), because I am completely new to programming, and found Euphoria. Some place on Rapideuphoria.com said if I was completely new to check it out, I'm still reading it, but I don't know how to even make one of his demo programs. Can anyone help?
Yes
What Derek means to say is, can you ask a more specific question? This is a very friendly and helpful community, but specific questions will give you the best results. I haven't looked at ABGTE2 in many years, but if you can post the code you're looking at, and ask a question, I'm sure there are many people who would be happy to give you answers.
Based on your question here, I'll start by saying that a euphoria program is simply a text file (or many of them!) with the code written in it. The euphoria interpreter is a regular executable program that reads the file and takes action based upon what is written there.
In order to create a program, you'll need a text editor. At a minimum, assuming you're on windows, you could use notepad. There are many better choices, and everyone has their favorite, but for doing simple demos, notepad is probably fine to get started with.
