Yes, I like this feature very much, the bilingual EU 2.5 works
OK for me and I have thanks from people for that package.
That 2.5 can execute an EU code with *any* non-English names
for identifiers (128..255 codes), not only Russian and English.
Anyway, I plan to expand the 3.0.2(3..) source for this
feature plus multilingual EU messages, some time later on,
just my spare time is very limited for now.
The automatic code translation from any foreign language to
standard 100% pure Euphoria and back is simple (execpt comments)
and works OK in 2.5 from English to Russian and
from Russian to English.
