Well, i've come to the conclusion that I basically need to upgrade out 
of this hole I call a 486SX/33. Basically, RHIDE (1.3, yes) will crash 
every time:

1) My program quits with an errorlevel != 0, and I close down all 
windows. Oddly enough, if I re-load my project, which is a rather 
transparent action to me (i.e., I just click reload, nothing changes on 
my desktop except it closes then opens) this does not happen.

2) the debugger will quit if I single step and ANY floating point 
calculations are done. This is likely due to trapping fpu interrupts, 
or something..

Has anyone else, w/o a FPU encountered these two bugs? I take it the 
window-closing down bug is NOT common, since it has been driving me 
absolutely insane since I think version 1.1. And the FPU/debugger 
problem, I know Robert knows about but can it be fixed? Feel free to 
ask me any more questions if it would help...
