1. bind error?

Why do i get this error window?

usage 1:
   bindw.bat [-scramble] [-icon iconfile[.ico]] [filename[.exw]]
usage 2:
   shroud.bat [-scramble] [filename[.exw]]
Press Enter to close window ...


The help file says this:
The Bind Command 
Synopsis: 
     bind  [-clear] [-list] [filename.ex]
     bindu [-clear] [-list] [filename.exu]
     bindw [-clear] [-list] [-icon filename.ico] [filename.exw]


and i even tried specifying the complete path to the .exw i wanted bound. I
tried
running bind from that directory too. I have Eu v2.3 complete edition.

Because you gave bind/bindw incorrect command-line options.

In 2.3, the error message above is incorrect. There is no
"-scramble" option in 2.3 or later. Don't trust the error message.
Trust the bind.htm or bind.doc documentation. This was corrected
in 2.4.

That looks right for 2.3. 
2.4 has a couple of additional options.

If you're binding a Windows (.exw) program, 
remember to use: bindw
If you're binding using a pathname containing blanks,
use double quotes around the path.

That's what it was. I added quotes, and it ran. The exe runs too. Best part is 
it doesn't prohibit access the harddrive or the source files while it's running.
