I had the exact same problem. I believe that Rhide has a mouse handler
routine built in. If you go to the properties for RHide and add an -M
at the end of the command line parameters it will work fine.
EX:   somedir\rhide.exe -M
My problem is setting up the directories for the libraries. But I
guess reading the FAQ should help.
