This is actually not recommended.  The canonical way of enabling the long 
file name support is to set LFN=y in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.  Editing 
DJGPP.ENV can be dangerous because its syntax is cryptic, and a wrong 
character inadvertently deleted there can screw your entire DJGPP 
installation.

Therefore, even though it probably isn't the case of your problems, I 
suggest to revert to the original DJGPP.ENV file from djdev201.zip, and 
instead set LFN=y in AUTOEXEC.BAT.

Try the RHIDE FAQ.  If that doesn't give a clue, invoke the RHIDE 
bug-reporting command (sorry, I don't use RHIDE so I cannot tell you how 
exactly to do that), then post here the file it creates.
