1. how to bind?
Well, I finally got around to trying the bind program and it
doesn't work.
I run the bind.bat program in euphoria/bin and it asks for
file name, etc. then says I need to have pdex.ex in
euphoria/bin. The problem is it is alreay there. Why doesn't
the bind program see it?

Hi John,
as far as I remember, you have to rename the ex.exe and exw.exe files of
the shareware version to pdex.exe and pdexw.exe BEFORE you copy the
registered version over the shareware edition. Get the shareware ex.exe
and exw.exe, rename them to pdex.exe and pdexw.exe and move them into
the bin dir.
Have a nice day, Rolf

In addition to what Rolf just said, I would add that
the bind program is trying to open:
%EUDIR%\bin\pdex.exe
type:
SET
or
echo %EUDIR%
to see if your EUDIR is pointing to the right place.
If you haven't set EUDIR, I believe bind will try C:\EUPHORIA.
Maybe you installed on D: or whatever.

Rolf, It was months ago. I think I did the name change thing but
am not sure now. How can I be sure? I remember it was pretty
confusing, but since the main program has been running ok I
thought everything was ok.
I've now tried the shroud program even though I don't really need
it and it doesn't work either. It says it can't include graphics.e
which is where it should be in Euphoria\include
Rob, I thought I had set EUDIR, but really hadn't since I forgot to
put the equal sign in. You are right about installing on D:, so now
I've tried set EUDIR = D:\EUPHORIA and set EUDIR = D:\EUPHORIA\
(and reinitializing the computer in between) but neither helps
bind.bat find pdex.exe. It is in d:\euphoria\bin
size=176 kb date=feb 29 2000
the ex.exe file is the same size but dated january 11 2000
The set command shows that EUDIR is set.
What am I missing here? Hope I don't have to reinstall everything.
I also have PATH pointing to d:\euphoria\bin.

Just type:
ex
exw
pdex
pdexw
and press Enter. They will each say the version number (2.2)
and whether they are Public Domain Edition or Complete Edition.

Don't put a backslash on the end,
and don't put any blanks around the = (equals sign).
Just say:
SET EUDIR=D:\EUPHORIA
If you need more help, feel free to e-mail me personally.
