May I presume that you are working in Windows 9x?

Firstly, you will want to be certain that your PATH is established in
autoexec.bat properly.

        set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.env
        set PATH=C:\DJGPP\BIN;%PATH%

In order to access autoexec.bat in MS-DOS, simply enter C:\>edit
autoexec.bat.

After confirming this, we will presume you are back in the usual Windows
9x desktop mode.  You can go to your "START" button and click on your
MS-DOS prompt under "Programs".  You will probably see the C:\WINDOWS>
prompt.  I prefer to enter cd .. at this point.  This changes the
directory to the simple C:> arrangement.  (cd=change directory).  Next,
simply enter rhide.  This will load the RHIDE program (assuming you have
downloaded it.)  You can do the usual "Hello World" program at this
point.  (Go to "File" and "Open" to create a new program.  It is
convenient to save them in the DJGPP directory.)  Hope this helps . . .
