Yes, mainly, but many people who do speak English very well,
like to read the docs translated into Russian too - for better
understanding. English is good, but Russian is better  blink

Via Internet, there is no another way for now.
My private site is registered on the main Russian search engine -
www.rambler.ru. I had registered it years ago.

No, I think. People use VB and VC at work to be compatible with MS
products. But there are Russian mirrors of sourceforge - say, we can
download Matt's wxEuphoria from Moscow site.

No, there is not. But I answer any questions about Euphoria in Russian with
pleasure from my private e-mail address. Sometimes, it is very active work.

At my home phone too.

They are fully available, sure.

But all Russian chars are in 128..255 range. Imagine yourself writing your
program in Russian.
Then imagine some Russian kid writing his program in English. We need learn
English first, then  to program. With Russian keywords we can program in
Russian.

That BlackBox allows the Russian identifiers with some restriction.
Modified Euphoria allows not only user's  identifiers, but Russian
builtins and lib routines, and keywords now.

It is very handy thing - to program 100% in your native language
under Euphoria rules.

I have ed.ex now 100% in Russian.
It works and gives me great Euphoria smile
