I don't understand why all the changes are needed ?
I thought that that the whole idea of eu.cfg was to solve problems like this .
No, eu.cfg solves other issues.

If you setup eu.cfg in a directory to point to ed.ex and you type 'ed' Euphoria
should use ed.ex .
eu.cfg doesn't change your path at all. And as Tom said, on Unix like systems there's usually an editor called ed already installed.

Agreed in full. Also, I don't think eu.cfg has an option to pass in the location of main program file search pathes, only include file search paths.
So there's no way to e.g. point eu.cfg to /opt/euphoria/bin, then from /tmp run 'eui ed.ex' and have it work either.
