Hi Robert Craig,
is there any possibility of us registered users getting the un - UPXed
Euphoria. ie exw.exe. i want to bind my prog then upx it but that can't
work cause Euphoria was Upxed before.

Shouldn't be the same? It's supposed that the added code (eu's bind
programs are a copy of ex*.exe with your coded added on the end) don't
have to be modified, and upx may do that, so it won't work.
I tried doing that before, but it just don't work and the size
difference wasn't too much.

It's possible.

You'd need to hack exw.exe to instead of reading bound data
from file (argv[1] @ some offset) to memory location where
upx unpacks it. I don't know how UPX compression works, so
it may be impossible. Also, you wouldn't gain much space,
scrambled code seems to be quite compressed already.
You could use the Translator, compile with optimisations
for size and use any packer you want.

I'd have to go into the source code, make a change
and then rebuild it, and retest it. For reasons that Martin
already mentioned, I don't think you could save much, if any space.
Also, I don't want to have copies of the uncompressed exw.exe
floating around. It's slightly easier to crack, hack, insert viruses into, etc.
than the compressed version.
