Yes, and that's an integral part of my plan, but first you need a dotnet
executable. Basically, I'm writing a lot of the backend stuff in C#, then
decompiling that to il code (yes, I could make it an external assembly, and
that will likely be an option). I have a program that takes a 'shrouded'
ooeu program, and translates that into il code. Then I'm calling ilasm
to put it all into an exe.
I need to rewrite the way it represents Euphoria data--it's not very elegant
or efficient, although with a minor change to the code, I was able to get
the sieve benchmark to run faster than with a translated ooeu backend, so
it's at least possible to get better performance than currently possible.
It's also possible that it could work with Mono, so it could be cross
platform, too. Still lots of work to be done...
