Welcome:

Euphoria is an interpreter. It needs a program to interpret and execute.
There are several sample programs included as demos, and there are many,
many more to download from the "contributions" and "archives" pages on the
Euphoria web site.

However, the real fun is writing your own programs. You can use any plain
text editor (notepad, for example). Type in the two lines of text below and
save it as "hello.ex":

-- This is my first program
puts(1,"Hello, world!")

Once it is saved, then type "ex hello" (without the quotes) and see what
happens.

Only computer nerds will find that exciting, but it is a first step. The
next step is to read the files refman.doc and library.doc. These are worth
printing, you'll want to refer to them often. You'll also want to download
the excellent EE:CS editor from the Euphoria website. It makes programming
much easier.

Your next, and most difficult, step is to think of a useful program to
write. Can't help there, because what's useful to me probably wouldn't be
for you.

Irv Mullins
