cd ~~where you keep it~~/allegro
cd examples
rhide exhello      - this will start rhide and create a exhello.gpr
and exhello.gpd file
                            int the current directory (examples)

on the menu
select "option -> libraries" and make the first line
[X] 0 alleg

select "project->add_item" and click on exhello.c then [OK] then
[cancel] (only way to leave this dialog- it should be labelled 'done')

type ctrl-F9 to compile and run the program

the project will be saved when you quit RHIDE or you may use
"Project -> Close"menu
