> Try the Debug|Call Stack and Debug|List of Functions options.

Oh yes :) very nice

One more thing which would be nice is if, when you right-click on a
function or variable name, then you have the option to go to to the
definition.  As it is, the Info viewer opens with a selection of libc
functions which is rarely what I want.

And the Search|Find and Search|Replace should have an option to search
all the files in the project and all the open files too.   I know
these can be done by grep but it would make life easier for people who
don't know regular expressions (like me) .

I have tried SETEdit too, Salvador, and it is excellent.  I am
struggling to get it set up to use my preferred keys for everything
though.  When it first started, it asked me if I wanted to use C-c &
C-v for cut and paste. I said yes, but I always use S-Del and S-Ins
and these are now disabled.  I'm sure I can get it right but I need to
find time to do it.   I think too many small windows are opened when
choosing keys, when one larger one would be more helpful.

I'm confused about who is developing RHIDE now.  Is Andris Pavenis'
version the latest? and whose version is on www.rhide.com?

One last little thing. Remote debugging would be fabulous, because all
my attempts to do 2 screen debugging (installing a Matrox dual-head
card, installing a CGA card) have failed.  I write graphical programs
with Allegro which I compile with DJGPP and MingW

I tried a couple of years ago to modify RHIDE but I got very confused
by the inclusion of gdb files.  I have progressed since then but I
find it easier to make my own editor than understand the inner
workings of RHIDE.  With luck I will be able to help with RHIDE one
day.

Best Wishes

Matt
