Thanks for the link to wxWindows.
I surfed over and looked around, and I'm downloading
wxPython at this moment.

I'm not sure how much support you would need from the
Euphoria interpreter in order to port Win32Lib to sxWindows.
It seems to me that you could develop an interface DLL
(or UNIX shared library). Win32Lib.ew could call C routines in
that DLL just like you do now. The DLL would then call
wxWindows C++ routines, and manipulate C++ objects.
wxWindows would then call the WIN32 API or the API of
some other platform in order to do its thing.

Once the 2.1 official release is out, and I've distributed it
to all the big places around the Net, I will start porting
Euphoria to Linux. When the core port is complete I'll have
a much better grasp of cross-platform issues.

Thanks again for all the great work you've done on Win32Lib.
