Jerry,

DMAK has worked perfectly for me from right off the
bat from the time that I downloaed it from the
Euphoria Recent user's contributions page.

Also, under the XFCE desktop, I assigned an icon to it
with the path to the dmak.exu file and am able to
exectute it from the desktop by clicking on the icon
with no problem.

The program can be run from any console directory by
placing the path to the executable file in the
.bash.profile file. Don't think that is necessary
though to install it as an icon or a menu selectable
item on most desktops. 

I also ran the source code thru the Eu2C tanslator and
compiled the C code using gcc 3.2. When I tried to
execute the resulting binary file I got a number of
GTK related errors - even though the program works
fine from the interpreter. I don't think this is your
problem. I think it pertains to gcc 3.2 and the Eu2C
interpreter and I reported the problem to Robert.

Keep up the good work, Jerry.
Ken Rhodes
