I'll consider it.
I tend to not have detailed long-term plans.
I just scan my long list of potentially useful
enhancements, mull them over, research them,
then I pick one, and do it.
At the moment I've just finished converting many thousands
of lines of C code to Euphoria. The E to C Translator,
which was formerly written 100% in C, is now written
100% in Euphoria. The new Translator is successfully
translating large programs such as Judith's IDE
(93,000 lines). The Translator even translates *itself*
successfully.
Next, I'll get the Interpreter working using 30% Euphoria
and 70% C. It will share the new Euphoria-written
front-end (parser and scanner) with the Translator.
Things are going faster on this than I expected,
and it's going to be very useful to have all this
stuff written in Euphoria. The speed of the Euphoria
code is at least as good as I expected, and I can use
profiling to analyze the hot spots, something that
wasn't easy in C.
