ToadBatch04.exe	Compiled command-line program to run under Windows
Animal.cpp & .h	Defines the Animal class and all of its behaviours, including the function relmove() which implements a single step by the SMS algorithm
Landscape.cpp & .h	Defines the Landscape as a rectangular grid of Squares
Main.cpp	Main function for the batch version of the model
MoveInd.cpp & .h	Defines the function moveInd(), which controls the path of an Animal across the Toadscape, including identification of a buffer area around each site, where auditory attraction will occur during the ‘recruitment window’
Parameters.cpp & .h	Set various compile-time parameters and constants, and set parameters specific to landscape grain, including starting locations and length of the ‘recruitment window’ in terms of numbers of steps
Toadscape.cpp & .h	Inherits from the Landscape to provide a modified input for the toad lanscape
control.txt	Example of the input control file, which specifies the ID, names of input cost grid and targets files, starting location and (optionally) goal location for movements to be simulated (not used for toads)
parameters.txt	Example of the parameter file, which specifies SMS parameter combinations applied to each entry in the control.txt file, namely:   perceptual range evaluation method (PRmethod)   perceptual range (PR)   directional persistence (DP)   goal bias (GB)   memory size (MemSize)
