Big programs are certainly do-able in Euphoria but there aren't as many. 

Personally, I use it mostly for "small" things since that's what I usually
program but if I had to something "large" I would use Euphoria but probably only
because it's my favorite language. If you want to do a lot of GUI based stuff for
Windows C# would probably be better since it has a large standard, supported,
Windows-specific library. We have GUI libraries as well but we don't have
Microsoft building large RAD tools for them (although, I'm sure some people here
think that's a good thing ). You should look into Euphoria at least since it's
easy to learn and if you need to switch you won't lose that much work ideally.
