HMMMM.. the phrase "CHANGE IS NEEDED"

My point that i want to make today is that change should be 
'confined'(?) to libraries. then people can choose to accept/modify, 
build on it or ignore. if it becomes very popular then add it the main 
system.

i appreciate the work that Derek and Judith have done. and Robert C.
without reading windows manuals i can get simpler things in windows 
done. but i still prefer 'core' Euphoria.


i debated with myself about changes and overdoing a language over the 
years. i dabble with different languages and write at least one program 
in each. though i didn't keep my prgrams around, they were for just for 
understanding the language.

i like Euphoria because it is close to the pseudo code i use and 
executable.  i still trying to break bad programming habits.
Euphoria is helping in that regard and letting me be creative.

i keep adding/changing to my lottery program to improve error checking 
in it. before releasing it , i want to add a help system.
so it still is not ready to release. sometimes change can cripple 
projects until it gets out of hand.

thankyou to all you Eu programmers out there.
later
