I only wish. How old is C? 40 years plus, right? And how many people
use C? How many different C compilers are there? Euphoria is roughly
10 years old, it's still wet behind the ears. And its only being
developed by one person. C was developed by teams of people, Heck it
was re-developed into C++ and again into C#.NET.

I don't think everyone jumped on C right away, or C++ for that matter.
I but over the years people realized how powerful and dynamic C could
be. So more and more people started using it. Now, a half a century
later, 75% of all programmers (that I know) use C. If Rob continues to
develop Euphoria, and we as users continue to use it and love it and
promote it to other users, then maybe Euphoria will grow to the level
of C, and in 30 years people will wonder why they ever relied on such
an archaic language in the first place.
