There is a cost in including even more into a project. More bugs and more docs. The concern is that the bugs will come and the docs will not. The bugs wont get fixed and will only compound. We already have this kind of thing it is called AIO. To me it is fine to have multiple and competing GUIs for a computing language.
The net version AIO downloads the things dynamically. I was going to make it use eubins but the binaries produced were bad and now eubins has been abandoned. ( A lot of my time was wasted tracking a bug that only existed in eubins (added)) I thought Jim Brown was maintaining it but I guess I misunderstood his words. The eubins are hosted on this server, the building process I suppose happens somewhere else.
The installer, comes with a 4.0 version of Euphoria and then downloads a 64-bit version of Euphoria. It also downloads other packages. EuGTK has more Euphoria points behind it than IUP which is a newer contender and EuGTK comes with scores of demos.
I just do not have much time to add another toolkit these days to the installer. I have a new job now. I'll be building myself a proper dev box in a month or two. :)
