If yer gonna ask for something silly, it should at least NOT be 
implemented already :P

The only reason you have to press enter is because your editor limits 
you. Euphoria will accept any file regardless of line feeds and carriage 
returns, as long as each statement is separated with whitespace.

I compacted my minesweeper source code (@ 15,000 bytes) into a single 
line, and executed it.
