	I started a preprocessor project about 1 year ago, called idEu. It 
implements classes, structs, macros, goto, more loop flow control 
statements, a select/case construct, plus about 30 to 40 additional 
features. Still got a couple of them to test and debug, the others 
respond correctly in short code snippets.
	As I'm currently working an another language (OpenEuphoria) 
documentation, this was stalled for a few months. Hope to complete this 
project though. 
 

	Testing and rewriting the yet uninspected code may take 1 month. After 
that, there's a doc to write (nothing was done yet) 
                and test on a largish scale project to perform, as 
interaction between features may be tricky sometimes and short snippets 
won't catch the subtle bugs. Could release Q3, 2004.
	If you want to help, that's very much welcome.
