Euphoria Robots etc.

There is a programming competition on the Internet called POTM
        (Programmer
Of The Month), in which programmers submit programs in C, C++, Java (and
some other programming languages) to solve a program or compete against
other programs. There was one in which two programs started in diagonally
opposite corners of a grid, and their goal was to get to the other
program's starting corner. They could issue one command per turn, to move,
build a wall, zap in one direction (the zap would continue in that
direction until it hit something) to destroy a wall or make the other
program loose its turn, or use radar to find out where things are.
The program would get information about the problem from a file passed
        as
the command-line parameter. The program would then send its response to
standard output.
        Maybe there could be something like this in Euphoria (the POTM contest
does not include Euphoria in the accepted languages, and the programs are
run on Solaris).
        If you are interested in the POTM contest, you can find its web site at
