area.lst not being found

I downloaded smaug14afuss.tar and also got the cygwin programs. I unzipped smaug14afuss.tar and then compiled the source code. Then when I went to run the .exe file it loaded up to the point where it should read the area files. At which point I get the error message:

"area.lst: no such file or directory."

Area.lst exists in the area folder, so I'm pretty sure something is wrong with the compile or the code.

Any suggestions?

Make sure you're running the file in the area directory. Or you could use the startup script.

If your in the area folder type this:

../src/smaug

if your in the src folder type this:

./startup &

it will either be startup or something along those lines.

Hope that helps.

Thanks. Moving the .exe to the area dir worked.
