Ok, but I am sleeping and seeing EU 2.5+x on a single 1.44 floppy!
Really we have now 3 backends for DOS - the first one in the ex.exe,
the second one in the ec.exe and the third one as a stand alone
backend.exe, right?
Same picture with Win32. 3 backends in one package.
Let us use the "delete double" method here.
Why not, if I am not wrong in my calculations?

Yes, of course, "just a bunch" and "all over".
But people'd like to see some working IL code, I think.
Say, some shrouded demo-program, maybe, without open
source code. Just to avoid additional questions.

Yes, I love to see the backend*.exes in the main package.
Then, just a thought, it seems to me, translators may be combined
into a single multiplatform IL-based E-2-C translator.
What to do, dreams, dreams, dreams
Good Luck & Best Regards!
