I > think RHIDE is great, and I'm a bit handicapped without it. Most regulars here (including me) don't seem to use RHIDE, and all I ever hear is how deprecated / unsupported / dead it is (esp. on Windows). But if you insist on using it, try the latest / last build: http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/rhide/ Anyways, the editor core is shared with SETEDIT, so you could always try the latest Win32 build of that. Or try GNU Emacs. Or try just any general text editor (VIM? JED? FED? FTE? TDE?) with GNU make or manually building your projects (by hand, .BAT, .BTM, .sh, etc.). http://setedit.sf.net What's the best editor in the world? - Well, it's probably the one you know and are comfortable with. For me, RHIDE is similar. I originally learned C through MIX-C, which had a very good IDE, but it was a 16-bit compiler. When I moved to DJGPP, RHIDE replaced most of the functions of the IDE I had been using. It is still distributed with DJGPP, so that's how I originally got it, and why I learned how to use it. I have been doing so for years, so I'm comfortable with it, and can use it easily without reference material. If there is no further interest in it, how does the rest of the DJGPP world develop programs? Is there another package that allows you to single-step, watch variables, etc? Of course, I know that you can simply write fault-finding steps into programs to output to stdio, but that doesn't match the convenience of an IDE. Thanks for the suggestions. I have already tried several versions of RHIDE, with verying degrees of success, but if it's not being supported into the future, maybe it's time I made a break with it anyway.
