Thanks for the link, indeed, an expert system is what I intended to create,
and after reading their definition of expert sytems, I feel a little bit
dissapointed. As always, you think you have something with a lot of
potential, and again, you're exploring already covered ground. Oh well,
maybe I'll find something or do it in such a neat way, that it does add
something. That seems to be a frequent thing in the Euphoria community. To
recreate a much rounder wheel 
I've downloaded Clips and all associated utilities, to have a look and feel
around, but unfortunately it seems that your poker implementation ends up in
a 404 .. ( xoom always messes up ) ... could you otherwise sent it ?

Might just be the finishing idea from a database system to a programming
language, or more concrete, an environemnt with dynamic content.

All ideas are welcome, if any one out there knows of any other expert
systems, or have ideas of their own ... i'm still not certain about how I
want to create the dynamic envirnoment (a sort of platform?) out of this
database functionality that I already have.
Currently, my best bet, is a way simerlar as to how I've created the DOCKER
Shell (example) .. which initiates all the activity based upon attributes
within some context. Wait, I'll explain.
In the shell, I went for the concept 'RoutineToCall' .. I asked what the
chosen command's "vision" about the RoutineToCall actually was. More
concrete, I looked up the value of RoutineToCall within the context of the
chosen command. To create the kind of environment I'm aiming for, I should
work with concepts such as "input" and "output" to initiate activity.
One choice I at least already made is to reprogram the whole system within
itself. Oh well, thinking takes time, so I should too.
