I'm fairly new to Euphoria and would like to hear what people say is the best way to get up in graphics. You know, drawing stuff in colors on the screen and so on. I ran across a rather old tutorial and after a couple hour's reading about neat graphics routines commands like draw_line(), pixel(), and so on, I discovered they only applied to the discontinued DOS32 platform. Do you realize what an EXTREME turnoff that is? From what I can see of the websites, most users of Euphoria would like to see its use expanded - right? Having someone interested waste hours of time with out-dated documentation is NOT a good way to do this. Anyway, there are many options. I'm at Euphoria 4.0.5, and I don't want to backup to 3.1.1 just to get up in graphics! What is a good windows graphics route to go that at least is as good as the old DOS routines?
dos_rescue is a DOS32 backwards compatibile library for Windows.

I think it also comes in an X windows flavor. https://bitbucket.org/mattlewis/dos_rescue
