1. need help re compiling code

I was wondering if somebody in the forum could give me an advice on this little
problem. I've compiled my Euphoria code (.ex, not .exw) using ec and OpenWatcom
compiler. The compilation was ok, but the compiled program, when run, goes into
full (DOS) screen mode, and I could not figure out how to compile it so that it
will run in a small console window rather than in full screen mode. Thanks for
any help.

There is no compile option which would do what you want.
The problem is known, for more information see

That's funny haze,

I have the opposite problem. When I run my code it goes into the small Dos
  window. I correct that by hitting Alt & Enter then I get full screen. I'm using
  the compiler that comes with Euphoria.

Configure the *.pif file to use fullscreen or windowed mode.
To configure a *.pif file - right click on it then select properties.

Windows will usualy create a *.pif file for the dos executable in the current
directory the first time it is executed on the system.

This does not always work as it should work. That's the problem.
As I mentioned, the subject has already been extensively discussed
on this forum:
