The engine would be great for a commercial language if I wanted to support
sequences. But I don't really want to write a commercial product. Just ask
Robert how much of his time goes to coding, relative to supporting the
product. It's much easier to release stuff as Open Source - more eyes
looking at the code, and more people able to contribute.
I doubt that Robert would allow the source code to be released in an Open
Source project.
I'd also probably want to support more than data types than Euphoria does.
But because of the way that Euphoria encodes pointers, it's restricted as to
the number of complex data types it can represent in an integer.
Don't get me wrong - Robert's created a great sequence engine. It just
wouldn't be that useful for my purposes.
