1. Ubuntu Environment Variables
I thought I'd let everyone know about this if they don't already know.
If you're trying to setup Euphoria on an Ubuntu system, there is a
non-standard way to set environment variables.
Typically, you can add your environment variables to your
~/.bash_profile (for local user) or /etc/profile (for all users), but
these files are either not executed, or overridden by Ubuntu's gdm
setup. My research led me to the /etc/environment file, but this is
not interpreted, so you can't set things like PATH=$PATH where a
variable needs to be expanded. So much for setting
PATH=$EUDIR/bin:$PATH.
I finally came across /etc/X11/Xsession.d/55gnome-session_gnomerc in a
thread post. I set my variables in the top of the file like this, and
it worked:
EUDIR=/usr/local/euphoria
EUINC=$EUDIR/include
PATH=$EUDIR/bin:$PATH
export EUDIR EUINC PATH
