I'd certainly like to help with the project. I'm really good with algorithms and file i/o. I also have the Complete Edition Translator with Borland 5.5 compiler, so if you want a full working executable, I can spit one out. Speaking of the Translator, perhaps since this will be such a large project, maybe we should chop it up into libraries (dll's). That way, when it is released, and something is updated, just a new dll needs to be downloaded, rather than some huge 500k+ zip file. Also, I believe Euman is finishing his installer soon, so we could package it in that. I think its about time Euphoria had a professional-looking (acting, thinking) product out on the market. Something to show that we're not just playing around, but we're for serious. I've been a loyal Eu programmer for about 4 years now, I think i started with v2.2, and I love everything everyone's written, but along with this thread on "Modern Windows Screens" and this "Yet another IDE" we could come up with a very nice looking app. ~Greg I think I've put in about $0.60 now. :) > > I think for once we're shootnig for a truly *interactive* development > > environment.
