CLARIFICATION: The string "C:\DJGPP\SOUND001.WAV" was entered in the
RHIDE evaluate dialog, not in the source code! In the source code of
course "C:\\DJGPP\\SOUND001.WAV" would have been used.

In any case, the pathname should not be needed.
load_pcx("PICT0001.PCX",my_palette) works if there is a PICT0001.PCX in the
directory the allegro-containing program was launched from, yet
load_sample("SOUND001.WAV") does not.
