If it were simple, yes. At some point I may do it. But for now, all I really
want to do is get the console writes to an acceptable speed.

If this is actually much faster, I'm sure that Robert would be more than
happy to fit it into Euphoria. It sure would make a lot of people happy -
running trace under Win32 is painful. But I *suspect* that Euphoria is
calling the same routines as I am, there's just more overhead (for example,
saving the screen before writing to it).

How will you do that without having access to any hooks in the trace
routine?
