I've been getting used to version 3.1 on Windows Vista, but having bought a new PC and had problems with the Vista Home Premium installed on it, I put Xubuntu 10.4 on it as well and now use that for most things.

I'm trying to install the beta 2 version of Euphoria 4.0 on it from the tarball and, being a Linux newbie, am finding the instructions for manually setting it up a bit bewildering.

I think I have to add a line to the /etc/profile file as follows:

PATH=/home/carolyn/euphoria-4.0b2/bin:$PATH

Is that right? If so, do I type that before or after the umask 022 at the end of the file? Or earlier in the file than that?

Then there's something about either creating an eu.cfg file or setting up EUDIR and EUINC. The latter sounds easier but I don't know what EUDIR and EUINC should consist of or where to put them.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks. Carolyn
