Linux command-line-oriented programs in Euphoria

After reading about Euphoria, I downloaded and installed it in the hopes of it being a replacement for the combination of C shell scripts, awk programs, sed scripts, and grep commands I am continually cobbling together in the course of doing my job, which is software development. Now, I am informed that, since Euphoria uses curses for all of its Linux terminal I/O, it is not possible to write Euphoria programs that behave like ordinary Unix commands. Is there an alternative version of Euphoria that does not suffer from this limitation? If not, does anyone know how difficult it would be to create such a version? Hopefully, Tom Dailey
