Why can't you use the following she-bang in a Euphoria program ?
#!$EUDIR/bin/exu
Why do you have to use the full path instead of taking advantage
of the enviorment variables.
If this could be done then a program would run on any system that
has the proper EUDIR settings.

What I have discovered may interest the rest of the users.
If a user places the follow she-bang in a program as long as exu
is somewhere in the path your program will execute.
#!/usr/bin/env exu
Note: The '/usr/bin/env' part is NOT the path of exu but is
running a program called env which will find the path for exu.

Wouldn't this be a better choice for the automated she-bang feature
which is implemented in the current shroud program?

I'd rather let you do this yourself with an explicit #! line.
The location of env is not standardized
across all Linux implementations, so this is not portable.
Here's a good reference on shebang lines:

Rob:
Your Linux implementation is not portable.
For instance if you shroud a file on a windows system you generate
a she-bang that references the exw.exe to run a program.
If you shroud on a linux system then it may work on that particular
system but if it is downloaded by another user they may have
their Euphoria bin file in a different location.
My idea is to use the env program is more likely to be available
on a Linux system than depending on Euphoria be setup the same
way by every user.
