Compiling a non existant dungeon, v0.19 (and all previous)

If you compile a TXT file that doesn't exist, RTC crashes with this error:
<pre> Error: an access violation exception.Stack Dump: RTC.InitSecondary(); RTC.DoFrame(int 7); RTC.WinMain();</pre>
I think a proper error message is in order here!

Maybe its just cuz I program, but accessing a file that isn't there would seem to be an access violation.....

I think it is because you program, because that message wouldn't lead me to think it was an incorrect path.
However, because of where it crashes, befrore it gets to the file, I've instantly worked out it was the compiler path that would be wrong
So perhaps simply a warning just before compiling saying ENSURE PATH CORRECT, so if it crashes your mind is focused on this anyway.

I don't get where you're coming from. A basic error check needs to be made before doing any of this stuff, even before the DM/RTC logos - if the file you're trying to compile doesn't exist (or you've spelt the filename wrong), there's no point in RTC continuing to load.
