Phix first try

Hi,
After four or five years, I got interested again on trying the Euphoria way, in the Phix flavour, as Euphoria itself seems stagnant.
Last time, Phix was seg faulting in Linux and it stopped me from building some scripts.
Now, I tried again, this time on Windows as it seems to be the main operating system for Phix.
After installation, to try to run 'pw edita' as suggested at http://phix.x10.mx/tutorial.php, I had to cd to demos\edita and then there's an error: 'error creating \demo\edita\edita.edb'
C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\demo\edita\src\eaedb.e:1228 in procedure initEditaEdb() attempt to divide by 0 tlist = <novalue> exh = <novalue> errCode = -1 Fkey = <novalue> i = <novalue> j = <novalue> ... called from C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\demo\edita\src\eaedb.e:1297 ... called from C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\demo\edita\edita.exw:994 Global & Local Variables Press Enter...
Went for the other example 'pw pgui'. So, cd ..\ cd pGUI pw pGUI
Another error is generated.

Another unwelcome reception...
