If the funtion belongs to the same source file Alt+F2 will do the trick.
For functions outside the module there is no simple way.

You don't have to feed grep with a regular expression.
The Tool&Ops|Grep dialog in setedit allows such a search, but not replace.

Maybe but this way the code is much more simple and you are drived to the
question. Big dialogs are IMHO more confusing.

The IDE itself Robert.

Yes, Andris is the "cutting edge man", he compiled a new version using new
things.

Robert's.

An Hercules/MGA card is the best option, but you need an ISA slot.

Well, you have a couple of options:
1) Work to solve the problems with your board.
2) Investigate the remote option.
Both hard and time consuming.
RHIDE passes commands to gdb so perhaps the remote option isn't that hard.

Ok.
