How to Install Euphoria on Linux or FreeBSD
Now that you've run tar to create the euphoria directory, you need to:
Now that you've run tar to create the euphoria directory, you need to:
1. add euphoria/bin to your PATH
2. create an environment variables: EUDIR, EUINC
To view the hidden files in your home directory, type:
ls -a
One or more of these files is executed when you log in. For instance, if you have a hidden profile file such as ".profile" (UBUNTU), you can edit the line:
PATH=...
and add euphoria/bin to it.
For example, a user called rob might do the following:
PATH=/home/rob/euphoria/bin:$PATH
You must also add a line for the variable EUDIR such as:
EUDIR=/home/rob/euphoria
And remember to export these variables, by adding this line:
export PATH EUDIR EUINC
euphoria/bin doesn't have to be first on your PATH, but if it isn't you'll have to rename the "ed" shell script in euphoria/bin, and perhaps a few others.
Note:These are the lines that I added to my UBUNTU .profile file:
PATH="$HOME/euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64/bin:$PATH"
EUDIR="$HOME/euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64:$EUDIR"
EUINC="$HOME/euphoria-4.1.0-Linux-x64/include:$EUINC"
export PATH EUDIR EUINC
Reboot UBUNTU
