Why Euphoria?

Hello all Euphoria programmers!
Well, I have few little questions about the language, and please if
you can, answer me.

Ok. Let's say that I am programming on Turbo Pascal (DOS), a little
on Assembly.
I see the TP language as the easiest programming language I ever saw,
and I think it's realy good for novice users.
About couple of months ago,I tried to learn the C++ language, becouse
everywhere you go today - it needed. I tried to learn it with a book
on hebrew (my language) , and because it was very borring -  I
dropped down the studying and made a cross line on C++. That means
that I should have a GOOD reason to get back itno it.
When I saw Euphoria's samples, I mentioned that Euphoria's syntax
looks like C++'s one. Btw, the syntax of C++ made me to drop the
studies,because it's realy weird and kind of unusual. At TP the
syntax is very clear, easy to understand and english language alike.
So the question is, why REALY should I move to Euphoria (I saw that
you're SO admire the language, so just want to ask - what is SO
special at the language that you so like and tell people to move it?)
The last question was curiousity,realy.

My another question is - isn't that disturbing you that the IDE is
uncompotable and looks not realy beautiful?

The next question is, can I write programs for Windows95 with it?
How? Where can I find materials for it?

Is there any other IDE for Euphoria? Maybe for Windows?

Can you please send to my personal e-mail some games or utilities
that were coded on the language? (I realy want to see what the
language can do and how good)

I'd like to hear some advices from you,Euphoria programmers, about
how to make my learning the language to something enjoyable. (as I
mentioned, I hate C++ :)

Please don't understand me as someone that makes a laugh from the
lagnuage,no,it's realy isn't like that. I just want to try something
new, and as I see - Euphoria is a good choice,but please give me some
more reasons for it.
Thank you very much.
Bye Bye.
