If Euphoria could directly access these API's without having to write a wrapper for each one, then all we would need is API doc for whatever target we had and voila...or poof...as you say. Of course then all you have to do is be able to read all that lovely API documentation and make sense of it. Not even Euphoria can do that for you Everett L.(Rett) Williams rett at gvtc.com
