Try running it like this (in the area dir):
../src/smaug


Or it depends on what you've put where.

Well personally I don't have any experience with Cygwin because I run my mud on *nix. So I'm not sure why. Try asking on the Cygwin mail list.

Guys umm when i run bash. ls and all of the stuff works fine. But when i go to a different directory by typing cd [directory] and then i type ls or anything it just says command not found. Now i go back to the original folder and everything works. It's just that the commands only work on the same folder they're in.

So yes, it it says command not found, you did not install certain packages. Or something went wrong with the install.

I have cygwin. What i am trying to say is for example i am at my my documents folder. In that folder i have all of the cygwin files and i ran bash, extracted the rom24b6 zip file. Now when i go back to my bash and when i type ls it lists all of my files in the my documents folder, but when i type cd rom24, it brings me to the rom24 folder then i type cd src and it brings me to that folder. Now i type ls and it says command not found. Every command that i could type couldn't be found. So am i supposed to paste all of the cygwin files in the src folder or am i making a mistake?

What are you using? Cygwin? If it doesn't have ls, you didn't install the correct packages. Rom is meant for *nix, so I don't know how well it'll run/compile in Windows.

Okay please ignore my last post. I figured it out and now i followed everything in this page step by step
http://www.gammon.com.au/smaug/howtocompile.htm

now when i go to a different directory and i type ls it says command not found. So i went to the src directory of smaug and copied all of the bin files from cygwin and pasted all of them in there (is this okay?). Now i compiled it and changed the -lregex.

i ran the mud (smaug.exe) and got this error

Reading area files...
area.lst: no such file or directory

Okay what i did is i copy/pasted all of the files inside the area directory. (Is this okay?)

Inside the Debug folder are the same files in the rom24/src folder but they are all .obj and there's also a rom24 application.

If you have an executable file/application, then run it, its pretty simple. You need to be inside the area directory then ../path/exefile to run it.

Object files are the source files compliled to an intermedeatory state and linked together to make an execuatable file, they are not needed as such but will make subsequent builds much faster as you only compile files that have changed.

The only downside is if you change a header .h file, then you need to clean and them make all again.

As for wether to cygwin or ms++ its up to you, if your looking to have your game hosted on paid hosting i would say cygwin as you need to be able to compile to linux binarys, if your going to self host on windows then use ms++, tho you will find that some code especially snippets my not work due to code not being totally compatable, and others like hotboot almost a waste of time trying.

Okay i have one more question. I downloaded cygwin and after i pick a server to download it from (i followed the installing cygwin page on this site), it shows me alot of stuff. I picked binutils, gdc, gdd (sp?), make, mkmake but after i installed it i run the bash file and when i type make it doesn't do anything. It says 'command not found'. I tried everything i even reinstalled it several times. My question is am i supposed to pick 'everything' in the list of packages that i need to install? And am i supposed to put all my rom24 files to the cygwin directory as well? Thanks.

PS: I also downloaded lopes colour patch from darkoth store, i followed all of the instructions but when i go run cygwin and type patch < patch-[directory]-colour2.0 nothing happens and it says the same thing as make "command not found". But when i go to c:cygwin the "make" and "patch" files are right there. Can someone tell me if i am typing the wrong thing? I checked the sections on top of this board about compiling and i also checked several sites about this but it just won't work. Any help i appreciate. Thanks.
