The binder looks for pdexw.exe in %EUDIR%\bin.
If there is no EUDIR variable set, it will "guess" c:\euphoria\bin.
It will not search D:, E:, ...

sanity.ex checks for EUDIR to see if you have installed
Euphoria properly. It will tell you if it isn't set. It won't
search for your Euphoria directory.

As a Euphoria developer you are supposed to have 
a valid EUDIR.

If you want to run your source code on another machine
that doesn't have Euphoria installed,
you can do it, but your files must all be in the same
directory, including any that you need from euphoria\include.
Or you can simply use the binder or translator to make a .exe that will
run anywhere.
