We'll try hard to accommodate Llama, or whatever
you may come up with next. I need to do some more research
on this. I'm sure you'll guide me. At the moment, I'm concentrating
on getting the wrinkles out of the vanilla, non GUI stuff.
Currently,  the Linux version lets you display 25x80 text,
with positioning to any line/column, and using colors for  the foreground
and background of each character. There's no
pixel-graphics yet. The core Euphoria language is working
fine. It's the O/S-specific library routines that need some work.
Linking to C routines in shared libraries should be possible,
but hasn't been implemented yet.

I'd like to see Euphoria on the Mac, but I'm going to
concentrate on getting a solid Linux version first.
