And say goodbye to the built-in debugger that is part of RHIDE.  Say
hello to the good old printf debugging and guesswork instead!  (Who
said we need any debugging, anyway?)

Also say goodbye to launching DJGPP programs from within the editor
with virtually unlimited command lines; say hello to the dreaded
126-character limit of COMMAND.COM!

These are only two important features that you will lose if you turn
away of an IDE compiled with DJGPP to anything else.  There's more to
lose down that road.

Note that I myself don't use RHIDE, so you can't accuse me of any
prejudice towards RHIDE.  But telling people to toss a good tool just
because they couldn't be bothered to read the README file is IMHO too
extreme.
