Hi Peter,

I tried to download your tutorial with no success so far, but I'll try again
later.

You're probably aware of the classic ABGTE2 from David Alan Gay, aren't you?
It's in the Archive ( www.rapideuphoria.com/exestuff.htm ), where you can
find it using the obvious keywords "tutorial dos" (in eighth position then,
as today). Its proprietary format is not its best, as it doesn't allow
searching, and you can't remember the whole thing when you're still a
beginner. I imported this into my word processor (Lotus WordPro) and am
building up some reference tables (extended TOC, equivalences with qBasic,
demos). If you want a copy (it's not complete), tell me your favorite
formats in ranked order (.txt last!) , I possibly have a filter for some of
them. I'm looking forward to seeing yours.

Best regards
Alain Sellier

Subject: Euphoria Tutorial


| Alot of people have been asking for a tutorial on Euphoria, and the best
| people can say is "Examine the code". Whilst there is a tutorial for
Win32,
| I thought I'd create one for DOS - learn to program in Euphoria whilst
| making a game (which will end up being the game I'm working on now).
|
| The first two sections of the tutorial exist, dealing with the very basics
of
| Euphoria - explaining sequences and so on. Whilst the two first parts deal
| with the very basics of programming, hopefully it will also appeal to
those
| who understand Euphoria, but would like to learn how to create a game.
|
| Around each week new parts will be added to it.
|
| I'd like to see what you think about it so far. It can be downloaded via
| http://www2.50megs.com/sonic/mobius/eusonic.zip
| It is a Windows help file, and a 10K download.
|
| I'm open to all suggestions, criticisms, fan mail, hate mail, and whatever
| you care to throw at me.
|
| Thanks
