1. Include problems
I have a problem with the include-statement.
I'm creating a package of libraries, some documentation on how to use
them, and some demos. I've put these in 3 different sub-folders of a
common folder:
main
+- include (contains: smelptyp.e, smelpars.e, smeldoc.e, smelwrit.e)
+- doc (contains: *.htm, *.css)
+- demos (contains: test.ex, test2.ex, test3.ex, *.smel)
In the 'main\include'-folder, I've put all the libraries. In the
'main\demos'-folder, I've put all the demo-applications.
In a demo-application, I include one of the libraries:
-- test.ex
include "..\\include\\smelpars.e"
In 'main\include\smelpars.e', I include a different library in the same
folder ('main\include\smelptyp.e'), like this:
-- smelpars.e
include "smelptyp.e"
When I try to run that demo, I get an error: smelpars.e has been found,
but smelptyp.e not, because it's not in the same folder as the
demo-application, it's not in one of the EUINC-folders, and it's not in
'c:\Euphoria\include'.
My temporary solution is to put all the files (libraries and demos) in
the same folder. Is there any other solution?
Request for Euphoria 2.5/3.0:
Every time a library is included, temporarily add the folder of the
library to the search-path.

In the past, I made the same experience.
Obviously, Euphoria interprets the file name "smelptyp.e" relative to
the location of the file of the main program, not relative to the
location of the file that is _directly_ including it.

... or interpret names of included files like "smelptyp.e" (that don't
contain an absolute path, like "c:\smelptyp.e") relative to the location
of the file that is _directly_ including it.
Please, please, please. 
This would make the include system much more flexible and comfortable.

Bach handles this with relative file names.
include .\foo.b
searches relative to the including file (as you would expect)
Perhaps Eu already does this?

OK, I'll see what I can do.
This, or something like it,
might be one of the first new features
added to the new, Euphoria-written front-end.

Add this line to your config.sys to increase the command.com "path" variable
size, so you can store more pathnames in your "PATH=" statement.
-- config.sys <top lines>--
shell=c:\dos\command.com c:\dos /e:2048 /p
files=40
fcbs=40,0
N.B. You can use any (larger) values you like.

I do not believe that this will help. The PATH environment variable is
used by DOS/Windows to find executables. It is not used by Euphoria.
