exw is for windows, ex is for dos. generally, use ex to run .ex files,
and .exw to run .exw files.

1 :
You will see that there some files that end with somefilename.e
Some programs need these to run and they must be located
either in your current directory or the Euphoria include directory
You will get an error when you run a program if any of these somefilename.e
are missing.
2 :
Next you must have a line in your autoexec.bat that tells your computer
where to locate your Euphoria where to find your Euphoria bin and include
files are. The line should say the following :
set eudir=c:\euphoria\
3 :
Now to run any program. ( all DOS programs end with .ex )
Only these will run ( all WINDOWS programs end with .exw )
TYPE:
ex anydosprogramname.ex
exw anywindowsprogamname.exw

I had the same problem trying to run the demo programs and realised that
you must re-start your computer so that the autoexec.bat file is run. This
will set path for the directory that euphoria is in.
