I presume you un-tared the SWR files and have compiled it without errors. The 'startup' script is just called startup, it is either in the src/ or area/ directory. If it is missing you might have to do a manual start. Do this by entering your area/ directory(make sure yo uare in area/ it will NOT work anywhere else) and type:

../src/swr.exe <port number> &

Change <port number> for the port you want to run it on and yes that amperstand(&) is important.
