Where is eubind.exe ? Where are you running eubind in?

eubind tries three locations to get the location of eub.exe/eubw.exe - EUDIR and the directory that eubind.exe (or eubind.ex) is located in (aka the source directory) and the current directory.

For EUDIR, if it's not specified in a eu.cfg file or on the command line wiht -eudir or in the environment variable %EUDIR%, then it looks in Program Files\Euphoria (including the x86 version if you have both 64bit and 32bit Program FIles) and then C:\Euphoria and then %HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEDIR%\Euphoria. The first directory that exists is taken as EUDIR. If none of those exist, it goes thru the list of include directories (if any) to see if one of those is inside an Euphoria directory, and uses that. (So, EUINC might be relevant too.)

Somehow, eubind.exe sees c:\Euphoria (either %EUDIR% is set to that, or there's an eu.cfg file lying around somewhere that sets it up, or most likely, it's just defaulting to that) and uses that as it's EUDIR. Then it checks EUDIR\bin and the source directory for eub.exe / eubw.exe and can't find it in either. When it displays the error message, it just shows the one EUDIR as the path it uses, even though it's checked at least two.

You can override this behavior by passing eubind the -eub switch, which tells it which binary to use for the backend (the full path is required).

I don't understand why it's using eub instead of eubw, as it should only attempt to use eub if you've specified the -con option somewhere (command line or config file).

I can bind now, but it refuses to use the icon I specified. It also doesn't return an error if I specify an incorrect file name for the icon.
