You don't need to do that at all.
Copy exw.exe, and any files from C:/Euphoria/include you use into the
directory with your application code.
Run it there. It works just fine.
If you want, you can rename C:/Euphoria, edit out any settings in your
autoexec.bat and/or remove anything in the system registry, [and if
you like, reboot] - it won't make any difference. It will still work.
The only reason you might need a (free) binder/shrouder/translator is
the luxury of distributing a single file. Personally I see little gain
over distributing a single directory.

I believe the complete lack of PAYWARE apps on the site sends the
wrong message. A healthy balance, suggesting you can actually make
some (real, not monopoly micro-dollar) money can only be a good thing.
