For the longest time I've been using the command:

TCSH STARTUP

in cygwin to run the mud. I'd like to get it where I'm using the smaug.exe file to run the game, but I've had no luck with using a script to keep the mud turning back on. Can someone gimme some help with this?

Well, if you've got the wait program, and you have all your text, I beleive all you have to do is save it with a .bat extension, or save it as a text and rename the extension.
