RHIDE is NOT a compiler. It calls external compilers (mostly gcc) for doing the work. And about the error and warnig helps: Until nobody write such a pice of help (the best would be in texinfo), RHIDE can't give you help about these messages, beacuse I have absolutely not the time to write it, I have enough to do with writing RHIDE and it's doc. > error. also clicking right mouse button on a keyword used to bring up the > incredibly helpful borland help on that keyword and give an example of use. this May be I will implement this feature with the right button, but currently you can use the "Ctrl+F1" hotkey on a word to get help about it (if there is something available in the libc documentation).
