The interpreter source that I'll be releasing is 
about 22,500 lines of pure C source. No C++ features are used. 
There are several thousand additional lines 
that I'm not releasing - the Translator plus a few other bits.
You can use the source to make a Euphoria interpreter for
Windows, DOS or Linux. I'm including 6 different .bat files 
to build the interpreter with 6 different C compilers.

A few dozen .c and .h files.

It's plain C source with comments.
It is *not* being released as "Open Source"
since you will *not* be permitted to distribute it.
On the other hand you'll be able to port it, and enhance it
in various ways, and sell your version, without revealing
your source changes (something that a GNU license
would forbid you from doing).

The RDS source license and price will be available on the Web site
when 2.3 is released (another week or so).
