Heh...

Liberty Basic is OK and v5.0 is going to be much improved, but currently it's
scum compared to Euphoria: You're limited to Windows, 70 MB RAM, very slow
interpreter/virtual machine, "DLL Hell" runtime distribution, plus very annoying
& limiting trials (300 second nag screen each time, 500 executable statement
limit).

However, they still have a much larger community than we do, and publish
fantastic monthly newsletters; I read them often, and translate them to my
Euphoria programming.

For example, I'm currently adding Mutex routines into 'memshare.ew' (memory
mapping IPC library) and utilizing resources found in newsletter #113. I have big
plans for this library and might mess with the Linux version, but more on that
later.

For now know that I plan to release an updated version of 'structs.e' with
updated documentation soon. I just have a few more routines to document; I've
just been lazy lately and somehow prefered playing Half Life 2 over writing
documentation.
