The front end source code (scanner, parser, IL emitter etc.) 
is free - Public Domain.
It's in euphoria\source, and it's the same code I am now using
in the front end of ex.exe, exw.exe, exu. The only differences are:

   A. I have a secret bit of code for decoding old shrouded programs

   B. I have a bit of extra closed-source Euphoria code that 
      interfaces the Euphoria front-end with my C back-end.

   C. euphoria\source has an extra file, execute.e, that acts
      as a back-end. I don't use that. I use a faster C back-end.

I have to keep A to myself. You'll get B when
you buy the full Euphoria + C source package 
(free upgrade for you - but check the new source license first).

For extra speed, I translate the Euphoria front end files 
to C, before linking them with my hand-coded back-end C files.
