However, MacOS has a totally different architecture. The executable format is different. The assembler syntax is different, which Euphoria must use to call C functions, for example. The entire C library is different, though with the FreeBSD-like layer, it will be easier to port to. This will only work on OSX though, OS9 and under would be excluded.
