I have a problem with the directory length of a bound program or just 'backendw.exe'. What happens is that a bound program (and backendw.exe) work just fine then the directory length is less than say about 128 characters, but when the name length gets long the bound program, instead of opening up normally, will post the "Euphoria Interpreter, enter file name to execute" message screen that normally only opens when the interp. is opened by itself. Backendw.exe opens stating "can not open .exe. file".
What operating system and shell are you using? It sounds like you are probably using command.com. According to this KB article, the limit for cmd.exe is between 2047 and 8191, depending on which version of windows you're running.
