Permissions for exu are 755.  exu doesn't work at all.  Like I say, just
entering "exu" at the command prompt does absolutely nothing; I just get the
prompt again as if I had merely pressed enter.  And, using "echo $?" I get
an exit code of 127.

This should all be ok.  At the moment I'm just trying to get the interpreter
running on its own.  The owner is "chrissy" and that is who I log on as over
telnet.

Can Rob or anyone else with the source tell me?  Even if I do find out it's
going to be difficult to do much since it's not my system and tech support
are pretty unresponsive.  I can't afford to move hosts right now and anyway
I doubt anyone would let me "test-drive" Euphoria on their system before I
pay up.

Is 2.4 going to be more compatible?  I'd prefer not to wait but if it's that
or learn Perl...
