If Platform( ) = Linux then

Welcome to Euphoria, Yves!  Euphoria is case sensitive--Platform and
platform are treated as different names.  The correct usage in this case is

if platform() = LINUX then

The Euphoria interpreter stops at the first error and did not flag Linux for
that reason.  Also you must include the Euphoria standard include file
misc.e to make the constant LINUX available.

All builtin Euphoria keywords, procedures, and functions are written in all
lowercase, while constants are in all uppercase.  This is also true of the
standard include files.
Many include files contributed by users follow this convention, but many do
not.
