Which game?? What error?

I played around a bit with adl. When I wrote my first dungeon I tried
to get some demon running. I got a lot of core dumps until I
figured out that I had specified too much brackets "(" and ")".

The code for "adlrun -h" is buggy. I had some problems to get it
running, and it still does not look very nice. Maybe if I have the
time someday I will try to rewrite it.
Maybe you could send me your dungeon (if you wrote one yourself) and
I could check out on one of our VAX, SUN or PC-MX2 (by SIEMENS AG,
the closest we have to SYS5)
