I have been trying to run the sword utilities for about a week now. i have tried to find information on the exact line to use in the command prompt i am running windows xp sp3, osis2mod wont run from the folder it is in, i have to run it from cmd. When i run it from the folder it appears breifly and dissappears, so i have to drag the exe to the command prompt, i dont know if this is normal. if someone could paste an example of what string to use to make a module that would be great. Here is some of what i have tried through the prompt
