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. > Do the scripts themselves have correct execute permission? What user owns > the scripts/exu, and what user is running it?

Rather annoying, really ... :/) 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... chris.
