Rogue runs best in a graphics screen although it will run on a test 
screen. Here is how I started a game on my hard drive per your request.

chd /h2/games/rogue; chx /h2/games/rogue/cmds
makegw
dir
echo Type name of saved game.
var.1
echo Starting ROGUE with saved game %1
rogue %1 <>>>/1
chd /dd; chx /dd/cmds

This worked nicely and if you hit ENTER without a saved game, the game 
starts new.

Here is my makegw script which is kept in the game directory.
display 1b 24
display 1b 20 5 0 0 50 18 0 1 1
display 1b 31 1 0
display 1b 21 <>/1
