The usual way of achieving this in DJGPP is to run the program
*outside* of RHIDE, press Ctrl-BREAK, then run the symify utility on
the traceback printed on the screen.  This should pinpoint the
function name, the source file name, and the line number where the
program was when you pressed Ctrl-BREAK.

If you don't see the file name and line number for functions that are
part of your code (as opposed to library functions), try compiling
with -g and without -s.

Section 9.2 of the DJGPP FAQ explains more about symify.
