Thank you Jeremy for your encouraging words and useful feedback.

I agree that a new platform identifier will be useful to keep Euphoria portable.
I think that on OSX Euphoria may eventually need two platform identifiers.
PPC and Intel Euphoria programs are likely to be slightly different.
For example a carbon mouse event looks like 'soum' on Intel rather than 'mous' 
as it did on a PPC.
