Patrick,

I am also very new to djgpp and rhide, but I think I know what you need to
do.....

I THINK you need to create a project within Rhide using the open project from the 
projects menu - if you type in a NEW name it will create a new project for
you.  You then need to press the INS key to add an element to the project. 
Add in the name of your source code, eg test_prg.c.  Then load the source
for test_prg.c (or whatever) into the editor.

You should then be able to choose 'Make' from the compile menu and this 
should create an .exe for you.

Like I say, I'm very new to this myself but I think it should work - if not
e-mail me and I'll have another look for you !
