Well, looking to upgrade to 4.x, can 4.x and 2.4 coexist on the same computer w/o running into each other? I would like to begin converting my programs while at the same time support existing customers with 2.4.
Yes. In fact, different versions of 4.x can coexist together. The key is to use your environment variables to configure your 2.4 environment, but eu.cfg files to configure your 4.x environments.
The eu.cfg system is a great improvement over EUDIR and EUINC. There are more configurable settings, you don't need to restart your shell before changes take effect, it makes it easy to have multiple versions installed and you can even override any of those settings on the command line.
