What version of Rhide are you using and what date was is built? I will
asume that you are using Rhide 1.5.0 snapshot of 29-Aug-2002, date
taken when you exist Rhide.

From the last line of your email I am assuming that you are using XP
and as such you are out of luck as far as I have seen. It will always
start in full screen to go back to a window press ALT-ENTER. This has
worked with 2000 and XP for over a year now. I would wait for Rhide to
be displayed before pressing ALT-ENTER.

Have you looked in the docs that came with the Rhide binary files for
how to setup non US keyboards?

I have a US keyboard so all I can suggest is to look at the Rhide
docs.

Please note the DOS on XP is NOT dos it is a command window, it
emulates some MS-DOS functions, but not all. In a command window
windows still controls the keyboard to display routines, but when
runnign Rhide it controls the keyboard scan to display. There is
mention in the docs of usign Rhide on non US keyboards.
