Message:
Ok, very weird. eui t_cmdline.e -? shows eui help, however, eui t_cmdline.e
-h runs t_cmdline.e as expected. I'll work on this.

Message:
eui is too greedy resolving -?, still in r2114 
-h & --help crash seem fixed.

with 2114 eui on win98 watcom1.7
eui t_cmdline1.e -?
shows eui help

eui -? t_cmdline1.e
shows eui help, and is expected, whatever else is on the commandline after
it.
but everything after the app filename must be ignored by eui.

resolving the conf file might be done before displaying help if there
could be options 
there for how to display help. default language colorized output whatever
else.
let the app decide how to handle all options ment for it to handle.
including help.

Message:
ne1uno, I cannot reproduce this as of 2106. Can you please double check
this? It is possible that the problem was fixed due to some other command
line handling problems that were fixed by Matt.

Message:
Shawn, it could be fixed but it would also add back in all sorts of code
that had bugs itself. Why maintain two command line parsing methods?
Euphoria in all cases possible should *always* rely on code in the std lib
instead of recreate it's own system of doing things.

Message:
This could be fixed by simply reverting the changes that made euphoria
itself rely on the standard library cmdparse.e .
