Hi,

I recently installed winhugs on windows XP platform, and found that when
I ran the program from the winhugs shortcut that I created (or even
winhugs icon for that matter) I got the following error messages:

A dialog box saying: "FATAL ERROR : unable to load prelude" and in the
background was an attempt to open the winhugs program with the message
(in Red) of: ERROR: Illegal character escape sequence "\ W" "

In trying to rectify this I am attempting to change the compatibility
that is set with the "-98" command but have no idea where or how to do
this.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Regards

Sam
