Hi Mike,

Yeah, the speed of the current Eu/in/Eu source held me back from
doing anything too serious with it also.  I built a nice debugger
but it takes forever to load a big program (5 or more seconds
sometimes).  Done in the Open Eu C source this would probably
be much much better.


Take care,
Al

E boa sorte com sua programacao Euphoria!
