Bernie,

I'd never thought of that, and haven't ever used EDS, so I'd have to scrap a
lot of what I've done, & learn EDS, but it does sound like a better way to
approach the basic template storage, retrieval, and usage.

But I'm not sure it would do anything to answer my concerns about making
updating templates easy.  My idea is that I would like to be able to put a
bunch of new templates into one file, with incrementing extents (update.aa1,
update.aa2, etc); updates sent to Robert, user downloads any or all, clicks
on "update", and handler discerns which are new and need to be added and
which are not and don't.  It might ever be better if I abandoned the idea of
multiple template files altogether, and combined all Euphoria templates into
one file, added to by updates, same with Win32Lib templates, maybe.

And I forgot about linux, sorry, I'll see what I can do to add capability to
store/use them.  Should I add capability to store/retrieve code templates
for use with EDS, too?

Dan
