I would like to point out I found an easy way around this but it should be
  included with the installation instructions. That is if one already has Euphoria
  install and/or wants to install it in a different directory than C:\Euphoria. He
  should:

1.) Change the name of the existing directory to fuphoria.

2.) Copy that directory and rename it buphoria (a back up).

3.) Install the set-up; there should be no conflict because the old Euphoria
directory no longer exists.

4.) Using Windows (and I suppose Linux would work also #1) Drop and drag the new
set-up folder into the fuphoria folder. When it asks "If the same file or folder
exists, replace [Yes] [No] [Yes to All] select [Yes to All].

5.) Rename the fuphoria folder back to euphoria.

  One now has the old Euphoria folder with the updates.

In the event that you have changed or added stuff to some of the include files.
You may want to drag and drop the include folder from buphoria folder back into
the euphoria folder using the [Yes to All] feature in Windows. Whew!

#1 As for Linux I never got into it because I could never get the winmodem to
work with Linux. I tried all the help files and discussion groups and nobody seem
to be able to do it. Or tell me how to do it. But that's a topic for another
forum.
