1. question for eu3.2 on puppy 3.01
Cheers,
I've installed the euphoria_3.2.0.alpha.1-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
file on Puppy Linux 3.01 with pb_debianinstaller-alpha09.pet.
It works fine although I had to set EUDIR and EUINC manually.
(In case of Abyss I also had to manually set the EUINC.)
I haven't followed your discussion earlier. Do you know how to
associate the .ex, .exu, .exw files to the exu application in
ROX?
Can you reccommend any editor that is comparable to Context?
(I do like/miss its predefined Ctrl-J code patterns.)
Is there a similarly simple way to install wxEuphoria?
Regards,
Salix

It's actually meant to not use EUDIR and EUINC, instead relying on
config files and a standard file structure.

I don't know anything about ROX. What you could do is to make the files
executable and add a shebang:
#!/usr/bin/exu

I don't know Context. I tend to use kate on linux.

Not yet, though I'm working on it.

First of all thanks for the .deb, Matt! As a Linux-newbie it was easier for me
to figure out how to install Euphoria this way compared to the Rob's .tgz!

In this case it failed. 
The system didn't find include directory and I
didn't find the config file. Anyway after setting the variables in /etc/profile
it works smoothly.

"Set Type" does not seem to work in my Puppy and I have no idea about how to add
application/x-euphoria to the SharedMIME database. Any idea?
Best regards,
Salix

Salix:
First check /usr/bin/ directory for a program env
If it exist on ROX then you can use:
#!/usr/bin/env exu
at the top of a program and env will run your program as
if it is script for Euphoria's exu.
Then you don’t have to search for a program via the
PATH environment variable.

euinc.conf is a text file containing paths to librarries. Create a plain text
file with some paths to where
you want to point, then put it in the directory of
-the program you want to run (as euinc.conf)
-the ~/ (as .euinc.conf)
-in my-applications/bin (as euinc.conf) - this path is always present in Puppy

Hmm - may be better off asking this question on the puppy forum. One thing I do
is
right click on the file
select file 'filename you just clicked on'
set run action
enter the shell command in the text entry
rxvt -e exu "$1"
click on use command
This will make exu try to run all plain text files, so may not be the solution
you are looking
for. Otherwise, just run it from a shell command - rxvt -e opens up a console
for you to run the program if its a gui or not, but with a console, you can see
any errors.

It sounds like Puppy Linux uses a different file system layout than Debian,
which is what the .deb file assumes. It will put (or try to, anyway--
not sure what Puppy Linux might do with it) a default config file in
/etc/euphoria, and that's where the interpreter will look.
As Chris said, you can also create one in your home directory, which is
probably sufficient, especially if you're the only one on the system
who will use euphoria. One advantage over environment variables is that
it's easy to modify the file, and you don't have to log out before the
changes take effect.
