Thomas is right, I can help you. For Linux, assuming <eupdir>
is where you installed euphoria, add these lines:
PATH="<eupdir>:$PATH"
EUDIR="<eupdir>"
in your .bashrc file if you use bash. For csh:
setenv PATH "<eupdir>:$PATH"
setenv EUDIR "<eupdir>"
in your .profile, and if you use a diffrent shell, try both,
and see which works for you. (Try the bash version first.)
