I downloaded rhide to an university computer,and installed it here. It
has the same problem.

This is a bug report for RHIDE Version 1.4 (Sep 30 1997 23:06:59)
I am running MS-DOS 5.0

Important environment variables:
PATH=C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT
DJGPP=
LFN=
INFOPATH=
LOCALEDIR=
LANGUAGE=
SHELL=
COMSPEC=C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\COMMAND.COM
DJSYSFLAGS=

My problem is:
==============
type the source line: (start at column 1)
*xy++=' ';
       |
       +---->This is a space.

and do edit->compact text. Rhide replaces the space with a tab. This is
not visible since it was on the 7th column, and there a tab expands to 1
space.
gcc sees the changed line as:
*xy++='\t';
(so it is not a readability flaw in my code)
