Hi Robert.

Open a project and immediately go to DOS.  Immediately return from DOS, 
or do something while you're in DOS if you like.  Rhide will ask if you 
want to reload _every_ open file.

Open a project and don't change any of the open files.  Hit F9 to make.  
It will re-compile all of the open files, even though you haven't modified 
them, and after ask if you want to reload them.

If you've changed and saved one of the open files before making the 
project, then Rhide wont ask you to reload the file (of course it does 
compile the file).  The same is true if you save before dropping to DOS.

All of this behaviour stops after the first time you're asked to reload 
the files or you have saved the file.  If you open a new file in the 
middle of a session and do any of the above you get that behaviour for that 
file only.

Obviously you're not initializing some data structure for the file.

Sorry I suggested before that it was happening always.  At the time I 
noticed it I was exiting and restarting Rhide all the time, and didn't 
notice the connection to newly opened files.

Hope this helps.
