Re: Support for older Euphoria programs? And porting DOS->Windows?

After long pause, I am raising the topic again. Lately I've made some changes to dos_rescue:
- First of all I've stopped Euphoria 3 support. I cosidered that on the one hand for now Eu4 is reliable enough, and on the other hand Eu3 don't need dos32 emulation because it supports dos32 itself. So now we can use overrided eu routines without putting dos_rescue qualifier before them.
- I made the window border resizable and made the image scaleable by integer factor.
- Now you can toggle the full screen mode by pressing Alt+Enter or with some routines like set_full_screen(on_off)
In the future:
- I plan to add 24-bit color support
- Use the mutithreading instead eu tasking in order to make the window active during long loops like
for i=1 to 1e6 do something_without_yielding_task() end for
You can get the code of dos_rescue here: https://bitbucket.org/insolor/dos_rescue
I haven't put anything at the downloads tab yet, but you can get the package by pressing 'get sources' button (white sheet of paper with blue down arrow).
As for https://bitbucket.org/mattlewis/dos_rescue I can't do much for it because I am not familiar with the X library.
