Seems that I can reproduce very similar crash with the same RHIDE version. I 
haven't looked in details what are the differences between my and Robert's 
versions (and I don't know when I'll do that) as I'm using DJGPP now rather 
seldom. Sources of both are available so one can try ...

Initially I thought about taking Robert's rhide-1.5 as base for my next 
builds, but at least for DJGPP it still crashes too much and I didn't have 
recently have time to mess much with these crashes. Crash that was mentioned 
in this thread is not only, I have seen several different with not very much 
testing: For example:

1) try reopen file from list of closed files (Alt-0).
2) also trying to get function list from debugger (Debug-->List of Functions) 
is looking for possible crash (perhaps not always though)

Also for Linux I'm using my experimental RHIDE build (using recent CVS 
versions of TVision-2.0 and SetEdit) is far from being good, but it is still 
seems to be rather usable under X11 (at least for me). I haven't tried to 
build it for DJGPP though.
