   Bear with me, guys...I've been programming on mainframes for 12 years, can
write COBOL in my sleep (and often do--ask my co-workers), and installed SCO
Unix and AIX for 4 years, but this C++ stuff is new to me. :)

   I'm trying to teach myself C++, so I downloaded the DLGPP binaries, including
RHIDE, from the AOL Simtel mirror site.  Everything installed neatly and works
fine, and I can compile (g++ -g -Wall -oexer43 exer43.cpp) and run programs from
the DOS prompt no problem.  But if I run RHIDE, pull the program up in the
editor, and try to run it, I get this message during the link:

Error:  d:/djgpp/bin/ld.exe: cannot open -lstdcx: No such file or directory
(ENOENT)

   Anybody have any ideas where I should start looking to track this one down?
I guess I don't have a directory path set up properly--I haven't made any
changes to the options in RHIDE--but I'm not sure which.

   Thanks to DJ, et al, for this excellent DJGPP product.  Thanks in advance.
