My hope was to make OE more accessable to the people who program in Euphoria.
A laudable goal, but unfortunately unrealistic. One is better off hacking at Phix for this I think.
You see that, DCuny? If you want something new in OE, you are better off switching to Phix.
I really want to argue this point, but Phix has things like self-resurcive compiling and true native multithreading. I can't argue this point. Phix is just awesome.
So Karl,
Is he still around? I don't recall anything from him since 2006.
The date when he gave up in frustration at OE not being improved by leaps and bounds, as he (among others) demonstrated it could be, is immaterial to the quality work he did and effort he put into it. Except to prove OE could have had features of Bochs since 2006, eight years ago.
Can you point out the specific features of Bachs (not Bochs the x86 software emulator) that are still missing from OE? It'd be very helpful to have a list.
