Hi. I'm using RHIDE 1.0 while writing djgpp programs. Recently, after
adding a file to my project, the project wouldn't make correctly. I
eventually figured out that this was happening because of MS-DOS's limit on
the length of a command-line, to 128 characters, I do believe, when RHIDE
needed more. I've tried running make and RHIDE, under Win95 and DOS 7,
using COMMAND /P /U:255 (to get 255 characters instead), but nothing seems
to fix the problem.
COMMAND /P/U:255 seems to do absolutely nothing. (Although 255 wouldn't be
enough eventually, anyway.)
I do believe this is a problem with make/RHIDE using system() instead of
one of the exec**() functions. I can't compile RHIDE though, (at least)
because of this problem.
I looked on some MS-DOS newgroups, but decided this had to do more with
djgpp.
Thanks in advance for any help/ideas from anyone,
