There is no standard GUI for Euphoria, and as far as I can determine, Robert
isn't interested in adding one. That means it's up to third parties to
develop interfaces to GUIs, and IDEs for those interfaces.

Although it's certainly a daunting task, Gary's done an excellent job.

If this is turning into a Win32Lib vs. VEL war, I want no part of it.

This isn't going to happen.
1. Win32Lib is no more 'official' than VEL, or any other Win32 library.
2. Like Gary, I work full time.
3. Money isn't a motivation for me, and won't make me work faster.
On the other hand, if people want to lend a hand with the Win32Lib IDE,
that's fine with me.
