I just wanted to make a suggestion. Digital Mars C/C++ is formerly Symantec C/C++ and is free(as in beer). It is very fast compiling but I don't know about the quality of the code. If you drop LCC, you should check it out. Also, FYI, Digital Mars D language is a compiled language that has a lot of features that people around here have requested of Euphoria for a long time. It might be interesting to implement the public domain Euphoria backend in D. It would also be interesting to see if it was possible to create a Euphoria to D translator, but both of those tasks are beyond my meager abilities. On another note, can you implement wordwrap and preview on the listfilter interface? Also my sig consists of a line of dashes and then a sig but it doesn't show up. j.
