Thanks, Matt, for trying to help me. Your solution, using the -makefile, compiled, but the wmake was not accessible. I concluded that the problem was related to environment variables operating system (Win-7). I decided writing the following batch file, which is run before triggering the eui or euc:

@Echo off 
Set EUDIR=C:\Linguags\Euphoria 
Set WATCOM=C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom 
Set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Bin;C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom\BinNT 
Set INCLUDE=C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom\h;C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom\h\nt 
Set LIB=C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom\Lib386;C:\Linguags\Euphoria\Watcom\Lib386\nt 
These environment variables may also be setting via Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables button, creating 5 new entries (New... button), one for each row Batch File above.

In conclusion, I think that should be done two things:

1st) Rewrite the euc, because it can not do the translation of my program to an executable, even when the environment variable was correctly indicated on my EUDIR setting. I would not say that this is a bug but an euc inability dealing with these issues folders and directories from EUDIR correctly setting;

The problem appears to be that the Watcom stuff wasn't on your path. This isn't a EUDIR issue.

2nd) Rewrite the Handbook chapter about translating programs from .ex to .exe. It was not sufficiently clear to solve problems alike. I had to work hard to achieve the solution presented above in this text.

Yes, looking at it, we should probably add a section to help verify that the compiler is installed and available.
