TO download win32lib
By selecting "The archive" on Misc Menu ( on the right of this page )
Searching the archive for win32lib will give you this result
That's exactly what it should not be.
If win32lib is the current GUI or one of the main GUIs, it should not be accessible only through Archive. It should be alongside euphoria 4.0.5, together with wxEuphoria.
I'm not so sure that that would be a good idea.
Euphoria is a general purpose programming language and not a development environment. This implies that third party libraries, written in Euphoria, that meet application needs of developers can have, and arguable should have, independent development from the Euphoria Language itself.
When talking about GUIs, it would be a good thing that have a choice of competing GUI libraries so that application developers can best meet their needs as they see fit. Having such libraries dependant on the language development team would make more work for that team and might be seen as a bias issue as well.
