I'm not sure how to run drwatson with windows 7. When running under gdb, clicking Open Location will crash BYOND before even showing the input window:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
1. Open byond.exe.
2. Click options > Open Location.
3. Enter a byond address in the correct format. (Doesn't matter if it's a real address or not.)
eg. byond://BYOND.world.12345


Seems to occur every time.
Running games by clicking Join works fine.
