[RR:]  In fact, "DOS32" euphoria means that it actually *runs* on 32 bits,
but you launch it on any 16 bit dos. It works with dos 6.22, but you should
look at your config.sys to see if you use EMM386.EXE. It probably conflicts
with the Causeway dos extender.
Euphoria is compiled for 386+ platforms, so it won't work on your 286. I too
would like to put it on my HP200 ...
