Compiler does not accept filename for compilation

[Misiur]

3.10.10 linux release build 3.10.9 windows release build Trying to build from source, will update with last known working version as well.

strace does not suggest that the filename param is used at all. Will update how it goes with sampctl. New thread is being created by the compiler I belive. Full strace

Try changing -(+ to -)+ in your pawn.cfg, this worked for me. In this case it just comes across an unknown flag and prints the usage message.

It would be great if it actually said which flag is invalid though.

Added an error message in https://github.com/pawn-lang/compiler/commit/a9fb3f07128b3c6eff7c0e1a25ba1e5bcef0f923

Invalid or unsupported option: <argument here>

e.g.

Invalid or unsupported option: -)+
