Re: Announce: Euphoria To C Translator

Hi Lewis,
I suspect that this is semi-deliberate, as Robert isn't intending for us to
use the C code directly. The C code is just a vehicle to get the Euphoria
code to an executable. We aren't really meant to see it. Given that, the
strange variable names and coding style are understandable. Also, its a way
of disguising (to a degree) on how the internals of Euphoria work.
