Why not just go on the internet and download a Linux image? Or, order a CD from one of those ... um, sites. All you have to do is get Linux (or FreeBSD) install in a dual-boot with Windows, and then install euphoria on there, then you can test it on that. (I know, easier said than done. I could do it, but I'm a Linux Hacker type coder, so it'd one of those things thats second nature to me.) > > I've actually been trying this trick for a while now, I'm a bit obsessed > > with servers coded in Eu.

SOCKS? in Euphoria? as a proxy server? on *nix? Its doable, but probably not easy to someone who is mainly a Win32 Guru. (It wouldnt be easy for me, either.) Still, I'm sure I and the others on the list can whip up something to help you out. jbrown --
