Ok, what is the deal with the binder program? I can run BINDW just fine, it nicely asks for the filename & then binds it up. But if I try to run plain old BIND, it presents two options, for shroud & for bind. I type in "bind" followed by my program name, say "program.ex", and hit return, and voila, the binder shuts down. What on earth am I doing wrong? I've tried every possible variation, thinking that maybe it wants the whole file path (tho bindw doesnt) or something but nothing works. Has anybody else had this problem? Anybody have any ideas? Am I simply insane? It's increasingly likely.

Two questions: 1) What version of Euphoria are you running? 2) BIND (not W) is intended for pure DOS, as opposed to a Windows cmd console, which uses bindw. Are you quite certain this is what you need?

I'm running 3.1, and yes, I do most of my programming in the DOS version, so bind.ex should be what I require, yes? But Bind seems to work differently than Bindw. Bindw asks for a file name, but Bind just says there are 2 options, Bind or Shroud, gives you some options, & says "hit enter". But I have not found any actual command that the blasted thing will accept!
