I think that too many of us developers have opted to have goals rather than hobbies. Euphoria development is a hobby. It doesn't benefit us economically AFAIK. I know that GCC is free and has far more features. You can implement runtime value type-checking in C plus plus with classes.

Phix is maintained by Pete Lomax and it helps that it isn't free. There is an incentive for him to work on it and maintain it. Generally software must always be tended to because things that work underneath it change. For example the 4.0 packages do not install in my newest system. Even at the low levels, as you change your hardware drivers must be updated. Operating systems get updated for newer hardware and change slightly their APIs that the program libraries interact with. Sometimes packages change names or the individual files get reorganized into different packages. The libraries have to change for the OSes.

If you need code rewritten to C plus plus or typescript you could email me here: shawn.pringle@gmail.com
