If you are addressing this to "Kat", you will probably get a replay from him.
Yes, I think I just got the reply, above.
It wasn't from this Kat. And i don't know nick "unsteady". And i don't use nix.
I was posting as "Steady". Jim Brown for reasons of disagreeing with him, decided to suspend me. So I deliberately chose the name "unsteady" and same email address provider to sign in to get further ahead in my Euphoria queries. Jim Brown tired to scuttle me in that effort and I had to appeal to Matt in direct emails to resolve the issue, and Matt actually did help. I have noticed that Matt is rarely posting these days. From reading about you, "katsmeow", I realise that you have had a long standing duel with Jim Brown. I just want Jim Brown and others to know that I have been on the Euphoria forum for about 2-3 years, I have no interest in Linux, I am a Windows user, by habit and commercial sense.
Having said that, I am tempted to switch to Xamarin packaged for free with the free Visual Studio 15. personally I find Visual Studio 15 too cumbersome to use. Xamarain has a long tradition via "mono" for Windows and Linux and has far more users than Euphoria. For me it is not a question of which language is slightly better than the other or which is slightly faster; I just want to get cheaper programmers so that I can outbid others on small applications that bring me an overall profit of $200-$300 per usable application after paying my programmers.
If you all decide to stop windows support, I am not at all worried. Then there is Freebasic compiler too. And I am sure there are many more Euphoria level Languages which I can use, but have not investigated. I am over 50 and I do not want to be switching programming Languages unnecessarily
I hope Jim Brown can see his Paranoia soon, and get appropriate help or medication.
