RHIDE 1.2a has been released.
RHIDE is an integrated development environment for DJGPP.
***********************************************************
NNeeWW !!
=========
RHIDE 1.2a is now available also for Linux: Check out the
following URL:
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~rho/rhide-linux.html
**********************************************************
It looks like the IDE from Borland C++ 3.1 and is written
with my port of the Turbo Vision library.
Some features of RHIDE:
- Syntaxhighlight
- Using projects to build programs or libraries from many
source files.
- Integrated checking of dependencies for the files to compile
- Integrated debugger
- Support for multiple languages of the user interface
- Integrated online help for RHIDE itself and acces to the
DJGPP info files
-------------------------------------------------------------------
RHIDE is free software with copying conditions of the GPL.
The primary site for RHIDE is my WWW site at this URL:
http://www.tu-chemnitz.de/~rho/rhide.html
And this version is available only from this site, because it
is designed to be a development version until RHIDE 1.3 is
ready.
The distribution of RHIDE comes in two archives:
rhid12ab.zip - The binaries together with doc and config files
rhid12as.zip - The sources for RHIDE
The binary zip file contains three executables:
rhide.exe - This is RHIDE
gpr2mak.exe - This is an utility to convert RHIDE project files
to a makefile without the need of RHIDE
rhgdb.exe - A standalone debugger. This GDB 4.16 with a
Turbo Vision interface (but not all features of
gdb can be used)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Because of the new editor RHIDE needs in some situations to be
configured for the keyboard. For this, please read the readme
in the %DJDIR/data directory.
I'm not longer distribute a separate Turbo Vision port for
DJGPP, because the changes I have mad are too much to work
betther with RHIDE. The sources for that library are include
in the source zipfile.
Because nobody is perfect, RHIDE has still some bugs (known or
not already known). If you found one or have problems with RHIDE
please read at first the documentation. If it didn't help you
ask you question in the news group
comp.os.msdos.djgpp
or post it to:
djgpp AT delorie DOT com
which is then redirected also to the newsgroup. But you can mail
me also directly to
robert DOT hoehne AT mathematik DOT tu-chemnitz DOT de
Because it was not possible to syncronize the translations to other
languages together with the developing of RHIDE, the language files
in the archives are not all complete. So you will see somtimes some
strings not in the expected language, but in English.
I will update if I have the complete translated files them on my
WWW site from where you can then dowload the file for your language,
which can be installed then over the existing RHIDE installation.
And at this point many thanks to all users, who had tested all the
last version 1.2 and sent me suggestions and bug reports.
The Changelog for RHIDE is appended to this message.
If you reply to this message, please send it not
to djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com, use instead djgpp AT delorie DOT com

Changelog for RHIDE since version 1.2:
======================================
17.03.1997: Released version 1.2
... working on the linux port
27.03.1997: Fixed the bug, when closing a window which was modified, then
Cancel ==> absolutely undefined results (only when the close

27.03.1997: Hopefully fixed now the mouse cursor lost after UserScreen
and/or Dos-Shell
27.03.1997: Changed the titles for Ctrl+F4 and Watchwindow
... working on the linux port
03.04.1997: The first working linux version is ready.
During the linux porting many small changes done with
#ifdef's
... many changes related to the linux port (screen, keyboard, mouse)
13.04.1997: Added a config file (rhide.env), which is searched in
standard places and the current directory. Now there is
no need to modify djgpp.env.
16.04.1997: Changed the default directories for the data files
(keyboard config) to $(prefix)/share/rhide and the
locale directory to $(prefix)/share/locale.

environment variables, which are seen by RHIDE in that
directory (including that from the rhide.env file(s)),
to stderr
