It's very helpful to have SSH or Telnet access when you are
installing something.

However, you don't need to install Euphoria, or
set up a path statement (if that's your problem).
Just put exu and your main Euphoria .exu file, and any needed include
files, even those from euphoria/include, all together into cgi-bin.
Then put:
   #!./exu
on line 1 of the main .exu file (be careful to upload it in
ASCII (text) mode, so the lines won't end in \r\n, just \n.
Linux is very fussy about that on #! lines.

Then make sure you have 775 (rwx rwx r-x) permissions on
your main file, as you would need with any CGI program.

A CGI program is not run with your user id, but rather by a special
system id, so the permissions have to be set up right.

Watch for the appearance of a ex.err file in cgi-bin 
when you run the program. You might also want to say:
   with profile  
at the top of your main file, so you can look for any ex.pro file.
