If RHIDE worked okay before on the same machine, can you tell what changed since the last time it worked? If you need a specific sequence of actions to cause RHIDE to freeze, please describe it. There is a known problem with some versions of Windows that wedges the DOS box, but it only happens when you run another program from within RHIDE. Is that the case here? > The > strange thing is that it works fine if I unset the "DJGPP" environment > variable. What happens if the DJGPP variable is set, but the djgpp.env file is renamed, so that the variable points to a non-existing file? If this stops RHIDE from hanging, then it's possible that something inside djgpp.env triggers some bug. You might try removing the lines in djgpp.env one by one until you find the one that causes the problem; then post that line here, if you can't figure out why it does so. > It can't be DJGPP.ENV, because lots of > other programs load that, and they all work fine.
