Heh! I put in a lot of hours making the front end slower! 
That's not laziness.  smile

I did it after watching you fail miserably in your attempts
to make a Euphoria clone. By writing the front-end in Euphoria, I am
able to give you a complete 100% compatible Public Domain 
Euphoria interpreter with full source, and no restrictions,
and you still aren't happy.

The biggest Euphoria program in the world takes you an extra
2 seconds to load. Pity.

I don't have a 2 GHz machine, and I'm happy.

You have customers?
Parse time is extremely important to you?
Why not get the binder for $39, or in your case, upgrade for $24?
Then your app will start up even *faster* than with 2.4.
 
> Most people don't have the slightest clue how to operate a computer,

But you want them to run your app as a bunch of separate files?
Why not bind into one .exe?

You work in an office that has 10 machines, but you can't
afford $24 for the Binder?

You are constantly putting down Euphoria, myself, and Euphoria users,
yet you have been hanging around the Euphoria community for many
years. Obviously you have not found a better alternative in all that
time.
