VERION: Version 1.7.0(binary downloaded from http://scummvm.org/downloads/)
GAME VERSION: Macintosh/English(CD-ROM)
PLATFORM: Mac OX X.5(PowerPC)
BUG: ScummVM crashes when I try and run 'The Dig'.
1. Open ScummVM
2. Add a game and select the directory where the game files are.
3. When you hit choose you get a dailog asking you weather you want "Steam/Macintosh" or "Macintosh/English".
4. I choose "Macintosh/English"
5. Hit 'satart'
5. The program quits. When run though a terminal I get this error: 'Unable to find Steam executable from detection pattern!'

    Can you please attach a list of files in the game directory?

    I am running off of the game CD. The folder contents(including hidden files) is "CD ROM Software 5.1.1 Read Me
    Desktop The Dig
    Desktop DB The Dig Data
    Desktop DF The Dig ??
    Icon? Trash
    Items for your System Folder
    "

    Don't know if this helps but this issue still happends on ScummVM 1.8.1 on Linux.
