type info rhide at command prompt. Maybe you need install texinfo.

IIRC, none in DJGPP. But not is the case in MSDOS.

You can put all in a batch file, appending a call command before setpah, i.e.

cd \cfiles
call setpath
rhide

Yes, you can. Open the properties tag in the direct access to the
cmd,exe program. The variable *Start on* contains something like:

%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%

Change it to "C:\" (whitout double quotes), or whatever you like.

Oops. What version of RHIDE are you using?  See the advice of
Andrew Cottrell in this thread. And, what is the contents of your
setpath batch file?
