There's a distinction here. DJGPP can make programs that run in a Windows 95
DOS box, and use Windows 95 features that are available from there (like
long file names). With the RSXNT toolkit, you can make a native Windows 95
program.

This is Usenet, what else do you expect? :)
Probably it will depend on your personal preferences. RHIDE is, IMHO, very
good if you like Borland's development scheme. It has a TD-like debugging
interface, and uses the "project" paradigm to manage large projects. For me,
I don't happen to like that scheme. I use Emacs for editing, gdb to debug,
and Makefiles for project management. I have no complaints.
I suspect the answer will come only when you try it for yourself.
