Black Plague + Eu concerns
Hello there,
I ended up getting a flu of sorts which im now calling the Black Plague
because it's so nasty :)
In the down time, i've been thinking about Pete Lomax's solution to
'allocate_string' and memory management using Euphoria, but now im
reading about something that sounds rather alarming here on the forum...
That is, MS's new "Vista" (previously "Longhorn"). This sounds like
something that could take our code we now have (in Euphoria) and turn
it into a pile of useless garbage. On the other hand, if this was
treated just like a new 'Platform' perhaps Rob could come up with
a new Euphoria for that platform too? Did anyone ask him yet?
I know it might take a while for MS's new takeover, but i find they
are relentless when it comes to marketing and this new system is
a big trick to grab and keep more of the market as usual. I dont think
it can be stopped, and Linux dev is too slow to keep up, but if Rob
can begin to support the new 'platform' perhaps this would help?
So i repeat: did anyone ask Rob about support for Vista yet?
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
