I used (it was a looong time ago- back in the days when my C knowledge pretty much only consisted of printf()/scanf(). Then I moved on to Visual Basic.) but I'm pretty sure there were a lot more menu options. It's also been a bit since I've tried RHIDE so I don't remember specific beefs, but I do remember being quite frustrated at not being able to figure out (or just plain not being able to) set up the enviroment the way I wanted it. I like to have more customizability than RHIDE seems to offer. - Shawn
