Using the wad from DOOM 1.9:
size: 12408292 date: 5/25/1995
I do:
edge32 -iwad doom.wad
I get the error:
"Identify version: Unable to add specified 'doom.wad'"
What am I doing wrong?

    Is DOOM.WAD in the directory where edge32.exe exists?

    Yup, dir looks like this:

    Is it set to read-only?

    Is this a modified DOOM.WAD? (something merged into it)

    Works fine here.

    Did you have any luck?

    Negatory... it's a pristine WAD, straight off the Ultimate
    Doom 1.9 CD. I didn't set any permissions on it (am in
    Win98, if that matters). I was going to grab the source
    eventually and trace the error, but got sidetracked with
    Fallout. :)

    I'll mess with this later. Obviously I'm doing something
    screwy.
