One really unrelated question: when I try to open a non-existent file for 'append' under linux I get an error. Under windows, agreeably, an empty file is quietly generated. Is the inconsistency due to differencies in operating systems or is it just a euphoria quirk?

Are you sure that you have permission to write to that directory? If the unix permissions (set via chmod) are not set up correctly, Euphoria (or any other unix program you run) won't be able to open any file for writing or create any file in that directory, hence the error.
If I create an empty file with the required name by hand (e.g. using a text editor), the program happily writes to it, it runs ok. jiri
