Ehm? In most cases? Or in few cases?

But anyways TP doesn't use "include files" = quicker execute. It just
uses compiled code all the way, and all the "slowdowns" are all in the
compiling process.
BTW why did RDS choose interpreted thing?

Hmm... After a few days working with Euphoria, I think it really seem
to make EVERYTHING simpler. Most of it won't allow us to do "hacks" or
things that are sometimes needed to do so... for example optimizing
code for that. And so, there's no pointer. So, what's the replacement?
I've been feeling very comfortable working with it.
And, what's a "record", or "struct", "union" in Euphoria? Moreover
there's no "object", "class", "interface", etc.
And how Euphoria will handle type mismatch? Even C/C++ will handle
type mismatch between HGDIOBJ and HWINDOW (even though it's the same
data type!)
Euphoria, don't forget to reply,
