Really? well libgpp is from GNU so you could try asking to this 
people.

Looks like String contructor/destructors are defined inline in some 
header so if you don't optimize the inline functions aren't used and 
seems that there is no "no-inline" version in the libraries.

Is a programable editor, Eli can describe it better (the mantainer of 
the DOS version).

Yes.

You'll get different answers to it, IMHO: no.

[That's a very common question so I'll reply in spanish because he 
will understand better]:

Lo que pasa es ques estás corriendo la IDE desde un directorio fijo, 
supongo que le pusiste un acceso directo en el escritorio de Windows. 
Esta no es la forma correcta, te recomiendo lo siguiente:

1) Siempre llama a la IDE desde el directorio donde está tu proyecto. 
Es decir, o bien:
a) Hacete un acceso directo para cada directorio.
b) Llamá al DOS, cambía al directorio donde están los fuentes y corré 
la IDE desde allí.

2) Siempre usá proyectos, aunque solo compilés 1 solo fuente. Para 
ello andá al menú Project, elegí open y dale un nombre al proyecto 
después seleccioná la ventana de proyecto e insertá los fuentes 
(usando la tecla insert).

3) Para setear los valores por defecto de la IDE tenés que crear un 
proyecto llamado rhide en el directorio donde está el rhide.exe. Los 
valores indicados ahí serán usados por defecto en cualquier proyecto 
que crees.
