In order to get the fading you want, you'll have to change the onPaint
procedure.  Eventually, you'll probably be wanting to parse it into different
levels depending on the screen you want to paint.

I don't have time to actually write and test the code, but I can give you a
pseudocode example:

if level = 1 then
  for color = 255 to 0 by -5 do
    setPosition(win,95,150)
    setTextColor(win,rgb(0,color,0))
    setFont(win,"Arial",14,1)
    wPuts( win, "Aetheorraent Presents" )
  end for
elsif level = 2 then
-- do the same thing with an increasing for loop to fade in 
-- the second set of text
else
-- probably your main code would go here
end if

HTH,

BTW:  I'm 28, have been using Euphoria since '94, have written several
commercial-strength applications in Euphoria for my company, but also use
Business Basic (BBX/PRO5), Java, Perl, and VBA on a regular basis.  I started out
at 9 yrs old with a Tandy CoCo, moved on to a TRS-80 Model 30 w/ 48K RAM (I loved
that machine!), T1K, and a Toshiba laptop.  Now I manage 150 users w/4 Novell
servers & 1 HP-UX server.

Rob:  Any plans for an HP-UX port?
