No need to take offense. It's just that out of the 230-odd people
on this list (and a couple who are not so odd), the chances that
more than a few would have actually used another os are small.

I haven't been able to get Euphoria to run under dosemu, it complains
about Causeway. I loaded DrDos for a test, and promptly deleted it,
as it won't work with Euphoria. Actually, you can run a program,
but when it exits, the computer locks up. Not much use for a one-shot
os, is there?
