Thanks Matt, Looks like your right, changed the command line to
It's just amazing to me you can write Euphoria code when you do not know the difference between "your" and "you are". Congratulations.

Common expression in my part of the world. Would you'r be better :) We tend to combine two words into one to save time in theser hills, I.E. These here hills :) (and yes I know that's not proper english either) Course if euporia used some of my lingo it would be perfect instead of just very good!
There is a contraction for "you are", it's "you're". I do not know of "you'r", which you mentioned. The word "your" is not pronounced like "you're"; "your" is pronounced a lot like "yore" (which is also a word), while "you're" starts with pronouncing "you", which is quite a bit different to my ear. And the words "yore", "your", and "you're" all mean different things, just like "byte", "bite", and "bight", , or "they're", "there", and "their", , or "two", "too", "to", "tu" (Spanish), and "tutu" mean different things. It's not a matter of "better" words, or snob appeal, it's about choosing the word to write what you mean. Words are names for concepts, if you chose the wrong word, you are stating the wrong concept.
