There are two things you may do to get a quick solution.
One is post to alt.mindreading.programmers.
The other is post the stack trace, with the information displayed by symify.
Then rhoehne can figure out what went wrong as he'll have enough info. :-)
I.e., redirect stderr to a file with this:
redir -e err.txt rhide
That'll run rhide, if it crashes you'll just see a dos prompt after this,
but a file err.txt will have appeared with the detailed info. Paste it
into a posting here...
