I have just downloaded zip files recommended on the delorie.com web
page, unzipped them etc.  I try rhide.exe, and get the error message:
"RHIDE has detected that the environment variable DJDIR has not been set
(or not correct)....Read the File README.1st from the DJGPP
distribution."
Little problem:  I can find nothing in README.1st about any DJDIR
environment variable.  It contains info for setting the environment
variable DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV, which I have done, along with the
PATH variable, following the Installation Instructions for winNT on the
DJGPP Zip File Picker Results web page.  (I use Win2000).  go32-v2
executes from a dos prompt in any directory, as does compilation of a
c++ program.

So what's with this DJDIR, and why won't RHIDE work?

Thanks, Ben Crain
