Walk before you run. Ideally, a man would be able to download the translated C source of the Euphoria interpreter which could have been translated on Windows, and then just run 'configure;make' on his NetBSD system. I'm starting with trivial programs.
If anyone would like to volunteer, you don't need to know how to code C. You do need a C compiler; either some GNU variant or Watcom.
https://github.com/OpenEuphoria/translator-generated
The repo is for code the translator generates. check it out. In the hello subdirectory try 'sh configure;make' or 'wmake'.
To get your own portable C, checkout the branch here: https://github.com/OpenEuphoria/euphoria/tree/translator-portable-c
For this part you would need to know how to compile Euphoria binaries. It's pretty much 'configure;make' on Linux.
