Hello all,

I'm new to Euphoria... looks like an excellent language!

I downloaded a colored directory lister called xdir from the archives
and I'm getting some odd error messages when I execute it in the root,
i.e. C:\, directory of my Windows XP Pro (Media Center) PC:

C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator>cd \

C:\>xdir
Serial number:E81F-27E2 06/05/2007 09:12:32a Volume:HP_PAVILION
c:\euphoria\xdir\xdir.exwc:2016 in function format_entry()
slice lower index is less than 1 (0)
04/12/2007 06:25a <DIR>         6a10610f947d0c62917865
... called from c:\euphoria\xdir\xdir.exwc:2090 in procedure display_entry()

... called from c:\euphoria\xdir\xdir.exwc:3345 in procedure main()

... called from c:\euphoria\xdir\xdir.exwc:3353

--> See ex.err


Press Enter...

At this time, I'm just executing xdir through a batch file as suggested in
the script's documentation.  I put the directory xdir, including the batch
file, into the path...

The script appears to work from other directories.  Perhaps there's an
updated version of this script?

Thanks,

Paul McCarthy
