Thanks for your reply!

I just updated gcc-2.95.3 version of Djgpp. Every other compiler seems to work
well (Thanks to Andris).

Can You update this Pascal compiler (gpc2953b.zip) and documentation and inform
me (download site), too?

I hope they add this --autobuild as a compilation option to next version.

My version is Rhide 1.4.7.8 (latest).

I change it to gcc, because gpc did not works. I "cheat" from Fortran make.

What is necessary is:

--autobuild $(RHIDE_GPC_FLAGS) 
>$(SOURCE_NAME) $(LIBRARIES) $(LDFLAGS) $(RHIDE_LDFLAGS) $(RHIDE_LIBS)

I will try this when you send me the new version of GPC.

I use Rhide in Windows Dos box and it works.

If you know how to  delete in environment  file told temporary files automatically,
tell me!

>Hope this helps,

Thank you very much!
