VIDE is intended for the Windows version of gcc. 
DJGPP is a DOS port of gcc.  If you want to use VIDE,
use minGW, not DJGPP.  Or, if you want, use VIDE's
text editor to write your programs, then use DJGPP's
compile (or DJGPP's make) from the command line.

VIDE, as a windows-based editor and IDE, doesn't
interact well with DOS programs like the djgpp version
of gcc.  VIDE uses gcc's preprocessor to generate the
file dependencies to create the make file.  So even
that - let alone actually compiling a program - won't
work, as far as I know.

What made you think it could be used with DJGPP?  And
did you ask on VIDE mailing list (see the link on the
objectcentral.com website)?

The _current_ version of RHIDE works pretty darn well,
even if you have Windows XP on your machine.  The
version available on the delorie.com website is out of
date and does not work well with recent versions of
Windows, and perhaps that is why you seem to want to
avoid RHIDE.  To get the current version of RHIDE, go
to www.rhide.com and click on "Snapshots".

Personally, I use a windows-based programming text
editor, create my own make files, and run make from
the command line to build DJGPP programs.  I use
RHIDE, though, for debugging and sometimes for editing
and building DJGPP programs.

Best regards,

Tom
















Thanks in advance.
