This sounds like you have the "Generate .HLB precompiled header" box
checked, which you shouldn't if you're compiling something (say an entire
game) that includes grammar.

Is your path by chance not "c:\hugo3" but instead something with a space in
it, like "c:\Program Files\Hugo"?  If that's the case, this may be due to a
bug in the compiler-launching functionality of the Windows front-end, which
I'll need to address.
