You can either create a euinc.conf file with a list of directories, or specify directories right on the command line with the -i switch before the file: $ exu -i ~/foo app.exu There's additional (possibly somewhat out of date) information about using euinc.conf files here: http://rapideuphoria.wiki.sourceforge.net/nix+config It is the fact that we require 4.0 to do this that has caused some difficulties with building on a system with only 3.x installed. I *think* these issues have been solved. Matt
