I've submitted another feature request for euphoria, and would like to 
hear what people think about it (also if anyone is interested in writing
the code--it's all front end stuff, so it's 100% euphoria):

If the user invokes the interpreter with a filename without an extension,
the interpreter should attempt to open a file first with the standard
extension for its respective platform, but if it does not find it, it
should also look for files with the standard extensions for the other
platforms.

Proposed order of precedence:

exw.exe:
1) .exw
2) .exu
3) .ex

exu:
1) .exu
2) .exw
3) .ex

ex.exe:
1) .ex
2) .exw
3) .exu
