1. Moving Euphoria

I need to move the euphoria binaries to another disk on my system, and I
cannot seem to convince my windows machine to stop looking for them in the
old place. I've tried resetting the file assignment and removing registry
entries to no avail. Any suggestions? It would appear than Euphoria needs an
uninstall program.

Did you edit you autoexec.bat to change EUDIR enviorment variable to

point to the new directory.

Also check in windows open explorer goto menu

    VIEW
    MENU OPTIONS
    FILE TYPES

    find ex and exw
    high-light ex.exe or high-light exw.exe

    click EDIT

    correct the path name there for both.

4. Re: Moving Euphoria

I have no autoexec.bat file on my computer. I'm running Windows 2000. For
some reason, Euphoria keeps looking into d:\euphoria\include for the include
files when it should now be looking on the c: drive.

5. Re: Moving Euphoria

Well - there is no such thing in Windows 2000. But I went into TOOLS, FOLDER
OPTIONS, FILE TYPES and reconnected it to the binary, but the binary is not
the problem. The binary starts up fine, but it looks for include files in
d:\euphoria\include which no longer exists.

No idea. If so, it is not in the registry as I've thoroughly searched it.

If Windows 2000 is still using "shortcuts" then see if "start in" in the
shortcut
is set to the right place.

No. This is not with a shortcut. I go right into the bin folder and run
exw.exe and then tell it where to find the exw file.

John, I don't know squat about W2000 and didn't keep a copy of your original
msg,
but in NT4.0, you can access "environmental variables" through the control
panel.
I seem to recall that some of them will not appear in the registry. Also recall
that you must be sure you're logged in with "Administrator" privileges before
making changes, or you may not see them next time around. You probably knew all
that.

11. Re: Moving Euphoria

John,

in WinNT 4.0, locked in as a normal user, you can open the Control
Panel, there open System Properties, then look under User Variables.
You may set the variable 'PATH' and the related value to
'C:\EUPHORIA\BIN'. Also the variable 'SET' with value
'EUDIR=C:\EUPHORIA' may be set there.

I personally prefer to start in the cmd-window with a cmd-file which
sets temporarily all necessary environment variables for Eu.

Hope in Win2000 it's similar. Rolf

Nope. Nothing like that in there. Just a couple of settings for TEMP and
TMP. It is quite a mystery.

Just add there the variables PATH and SET with the coresponding values.
That should help. And check also the corespondig SYSTEM variables.
Have a nice day, Rolf

If Win 2000 is like NT 4.0, then the variable will be in the console
setup.  Go to the control panel and open console.  I don't remember wich
tab it was, but one of them will have the NT equivelant to the config.sys
and autoexec.bat files.  This is where EUDIR should be stored.  Just change
the EUDIR to the appropriate path, and everything should work.

To change EUDIR in win2k:
Goto Control Panel and open "System", goto the "Advanced" tab and click
"Evironment Variables", it should be there somewhere
