Hello all and thank you for your help.

At last I have gotten everything under control. I have the editor working, I
am running programs, and I am finally writing my own code. Thank you
everyone for your assistance!

I have some questions about Euphoria that I am sure any of you can answer:

(1) I am unfamiliar with the concept of include files. I see get.e in one of
the tutorial files that allows the use of prompt_number(). Could someone
please tell me a little about what include files are and how they work? Why
are they necessary? What other include files are there in Euphoria?

(2) How does one learn all of the various commands for Euphoria? The
documents with the program only explain a little bit and other than picking
through the tutorials and demos (which is fun but I am already half way
through them) how does one learn? How did you all learn?

(3) What are libraries? They seem to be a common topic in the forum. Could
someone please explain what they are and how they are used. They seem like
something that you can create for yourself which sounds intriguing.

That is all that I can think of for now. Thanks for all of your help and
support. I am really starting to take a shine to Euphoria.
