Hi, just thought I'd make a squeek on this page to let people know I'm here. I only discovered Euphoria two days ago and it takes some getting use to to realise how elegant this language is. I've spent allready over 20 hours exploring the language and looking at the code many users have contributed and am really impressed. First a little background, I'm an asm programmer mainly writing drivers for hardware devices and even wrote a complete version of GSX for an Elan many years ago just for fun. Now I would like to develope my own os (32bit). I have allready developed my own crude os based loosly on Myrtle but with vastly superior disk handling and filing systems. What I would like to know is has anyone thought of implementing Euphoria into an operating system perhaps by converting ex.exe or exw.exe into dll's or tsr's. By useing the runtime module and reusable code fragments a complete gui should be quite efficiently implemented with simpler api's and screen handling than Win95 etc. I am fed up with all the different languages we have to learn to keep up with the likes of Microsoft and would like to develope a simple os to develope a web server that is both easy to maintain and easy to code for.Remember good old unix compiles for the components within it and I would envisiage the same for my ideal os. If anyone has any thoughts about this or any knowledge of what has allready been achieved and implemented please let me know . Thank You......
