Turns out the 2 was from a vector table only in the PowerBASIC DLL.  Heck of
a good intuition for someone so ignorant.

I was discussing an alternate sytax.  You are displaying your ignorance
here by missing that point.  You are also displaying an ignorance of my
knowledge in that I uploaded a DOS Euphoria program over two years ago
and have since written several WINDOWS Euphoria programs.  If you think
I'm ignorant of the Euphoria for loop syntax that is another point of
your ignorance on display.

Finally, it is cowardly of you to claim me ignorant in any respect without
providing evidence as I've done in the passage above so that I am at a
severe handicap to defend myself.

You can believe anything you like about me.

I believe that you are no gentleman and a coward.
