Good guess (hehehe).  I thought that since issuing gxx from DOS prompt
works, it should also work if Rhide could somehow execute gxx for me.  Is
there a way to do this (to ask my original question again)?

Been there, tried that.  The problem was, that after modifying the env file,
I was not able to save it.  An error message claimed that it was a read-only
file.  So much for that.  But.... for those of you who are having similar
trouble:

I found another copy of djgpp.env hidden deep inside DJGPP\GNU\gcc-2.81.
Inspecting this file revealed that it had the appropriate line added in it
already.  I copied it over to DJGPP directory and things have never been
better :).

Isn't it amazing how much one can accomplish by just trying things without
really understanding them?

Thanks for your help Kagenin. (This is meant sincerely).

cheers
Richard
