Robert normally puts betas in rhide-beta.html. I normally announce it in my
l7.html page.

Hmmm... didn't tried.

I think it was like that:
1) You runned your EXE debugging.
2) Your EXE crashed with a signal.
3) You fixed the offending code and recompiled.
4) You tried to debug again.
5) RHIDE gone to DOS.
Step (2) can be a Ctrl+F2 too in a part of the program that lets the machine in
a strange state (like an Allegro program because it doesn't shut down Allegro).
If that your case then I saw it before but I can find a pattern for it, looks
like a random thing. I even saw it under Linux. Looks like sometimes if a
program doesn't end correctly and you remake it and debug again something goes
very wrong.
