What I have discovered may interest the rest of the users.
If a user places the follow she-bang in a program as long as exu
      is somewhere in the path your program will execute. 

#!/usr/bin/env exu

Note: The '/usr/bin/env' part is NOT the path of exu but is
       running a program called env which will find the path for exu.
