I have a strange problem with Eu. 99% of all programs I
download works perfectly. I have got nearly all the DOS
files from the archieve and almost all of them wrok perfectly).
But in at least two cases I have received an error message
telling me that an include file can't be opened. I wouldn't
complain if it wasn't a fact that one of these programs is
David Cuny's probably most exelent EE editor.

So after having used EU for months, I still haven't seen how
EE even looks like.

The other program is Normand Blais' TSCP, a recently
contributed chess program.

The message is something like:

"Can't open "D:\eu\include\machine.e" or
"D:\eu\import\tscpe\machine.e"

I don't think it's a path problem, because then I would have
this going all the time. The files reported impossible to open are
always located exactly where they are supposed to be,
and Euphoria obviously knows exactly where to look for them,
since it gives the correct path in the error message.

So what is it then?

I have tried to be a big boy and solve it myself, but I
can't find the reason why this happens. I can create my own
test programs, include all the files reported missing / unable
to open, in exactly the same directory, and then it may work
just fine...

Is there a limit to how many files can be included, and if so; is
there a way to push this limit?

Anyone with a clue, please give me a hint.
