Re: Threaded Euphoria
Hi All Dear Eu Users:
On this subject,
What about standard RDS's sched.e from langwar directory.
Is it too bad or somewhat else ?
Same about topaz?.zips, engine21.zip, ese.zip,
euthread.tar from the RDS Archive best contributors.
I like sched.e's multitasking idea, very clear and simple,
I think.
And I saw Java's threads - SOS! (JAVA NOW! by Kris Jamsa)
Why not sched.e ?
Maybe this and other libs above were discussed in the list,
I just don't know.
Multitasking (with fast powerful CPU) is very-very useful
thing, but I don't think it must be built-in to (into?)
the Eu interpreters if there are sched.e methods just now
and Eu really can provide this service -- play lw.ex and see.
Multitasking is OS's duty and it is not clear for me what
really does do {java & browser & windows & applet} system
to move images in the browser's window and why java's threads
are much better than simple animated .gifs -- place ton
of gifs into your html and see ton of purest threads, no ?
Oh, yes, yes, gifs, all your gifs are licensed property
of another author, yes, sorry ... If you don't want risk,
use java's threads instead of gifs.
Nobody know laws ... Only Bill ...
I think, Bill of MS just doesn't know what to do with extra
power of modern puters )-: ??? 
and just *slow* down a
poor floppy in W2k with ten extra threads (:ten, not ton:).
(-: just bad jokes of an operator of perpetual a 386
But your CPU cycles, your floppy and your time are yours
properties, not Bill's.
Sorry please. But there is some positive sense in these
jokes and questions, no ?
Well, again, why not sched.e ?

that could be used in any action game or simulation
program.
We have implemented a form of cooperative multitasking
to manage over 10 independent tasks. There is a task
that moves the Euphoria, another task ..."
-- just read please sched.e.
