1. Edita: "lang" directory problem

Hello (Pete),

[v022]

I was trying to open up Edita.exe (after bindw'ing) with another 
program and found that it wants the "lang" directory under the
source's current directory rather than where Edita.exe is located.

For example, i put Edita.exe into the Euphoria\Bin directory, and
try to open it with system("Edita.exe MyFile.txt",0) and although
edita does open, it opens with a language directory error saying
it cant find the language file so it will use English.
If i put a "lang" directory under the source file's current dir
it opens fine.

Trouble is, i wouldnt want to have to put a "lang" directory under
every file's directory i intended to open using Edita so i think
the lang directory should be under where the file 'edita.exw' or
'edita.exe' is located, or even better might be to just require
having the lang *file* in the same dir as 'edita.exe' perhaps?

I've done something like this with several of my programs by reading
that stuff first then switching dir's if needed.  It's fairly easy
to change.

The ini file seems to read fine.



Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
