Hello everybody,
I think I found a little bug in RHIDE. Because Robert Höhne (the author)
wishes that bug reports are reported on this list first, here it is:
File->Open / F3 opens the 'Open a file' window. The bug shows itself
(under Windows 95 and 98) when I try to select a file in that window
which name is larger than 127 (yep, I found that by pure chance :)
characters. When I try to do that, RHIDE immediately exits without any
message.
127 characters is the boundary. It doesn't matter if the filename ends
with '.c' or not. It also doesn't matter if the filename contains
several periods, one period or none at all.
I have reinstalled RHIDE in a directory of it's own (just extracted the
official rhide14b.zip) and I still got this behaviour. Ofcourse, there
is no problem when I use the -n option.
