I am not sure if this is directed to me, i.e. why am I wasting time on adding
functions vs. making changes to the interpreter.
I'll answer directly as if it were directed toward me, because I am listed as a
developer for Euphoria on the SF page.
Every developer has a different skill set. My skill set is not in the backend or
interpreter. I do not know how to make those changes. What I do know how to do is
expand the library. I saw the need, see that other Euphoria users want this, I
can do it, so I asked Rob, he thought it was a good idea and he gave his
blessings to it, so I started.
I do not know how to make namespaces better. I do not know how to make
structures better. I don't. I'm sorry that my skill set is lacking in your
expectations. Maybe in due time as I read more of the source those things will
come into my skill set.
Now, I will add also that Euphoria is now open source. If you want to contribute
these changes to Euphoria, it's open. That is how Euphoria will survive is by
it's users maintaining it. Each user has a different skill set. If you want to
see something change in Euphoria, discuss it and if majority is in agreement then
do it. If you are not willing to step in and do it, then please, do not complain
to me or about me because I am not working on what you want to have done. I am
working on what I know how to do and what a large portion of Euphoria users want.
